Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Does a woman divorced with a revocable divorce who is pregnant observe a waiting period of three months, or does she observe it until she gives birth?
Answer:
The operative cause of the ruling is the delivery of the child. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Talaq 65:4] If he divorced her while she was pregnant and then, after five minutes, she gave birth, the cause has passed. And the term for women who are pregnant is that they deliver their pregnancy. Yes.
