My husband died in Rabi` Al-Awwal


A: If it is confirmed that the woman is not pregnant at the time of her husband's death, she has to observe `Iddah (woman's prescribed waiting period after divorce or widowhood) for four month and ten days as of her husband's death. She is not permitted to leave the house of her husband except after the elapse of her `Iddah unless it is necessary. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
