▪️The Ruling on a Widowed Woman in Her Waiting Period Moving From the House of Her Deceased Husband to the House of Her Family
Q- A woman married a man. Then, he died. He had no children from her, and she has no relatives in his country. So, is it permissible for her to move to her guardian's country to spend the mourning period with him or not?
A- It is permissible for this wife to move to the house of her guardian — or to any other place where she feels safe — in order to spend the remainder of the mourning period for her husband there, if she fears for herself or she fears for the loss of her honour, and she has no one to protect her.
However, if she feels safe from being violated, and she only wishes to be near to her family, then it is not permissible for her to move. Instead, she must remain in her place until she has completed her mourning period, then travel with a Maḥram to wherever she wishes. And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, Muḥammad and upon his family and Companions.
