Q: A woman’s husband passed away a month ago, and she is in her first month of pregnancy. She lives with her sons in a rented house, and the lease for the house ends in Ramadan. She wants to move to another house when the term ends
The lease, and she does not intend to renew the lease of the previous house, is it permissible for her to move to another house while she is suffering from a bad psychological state due to the loss of her husband in this house? May Allah reward you with good.
A: If the situation is as described, there is no harm in her moving from the aforementioned house to another house where she feels at ease to complete the waiting period in the prescribed manner.
