Summary
Malik says a woman mourning her husband must not wear any jewellery, ring or anklet, or any other adornment. She must not wear any fine silk garment unless it is coarse silk, and must not wear a garment dyed with any dye except black. She must not comb her hair except with lote-tree leaves or the like, which does not stain her head. 1
