إِنَّ الْأَمَةَ وَ الْحُرَّةَ كِلْتَيْهِمَا إِذَا مَاتَ عَنْهُمَا زَوْجُهُمَا سَوَاءٌ فِي الْعِدَّةِ إِلَّا أَنَّ الْحُرَّةَ تُحِدُّ وَ الْأَمَةَ لَا تُحِدُّ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Ra’ib, and Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, from Zurara, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said that: ‘The slave girl, and the free woman, both of them, when their husbands die from them, are both equal regarding the waiting period, except that the free woman would limit herself (for mourning), and the slave girl would not limit herself (for mourning)’.
