Peace and the mercy of Allah.
The questioner:
A woman in the waiting period of widowhood, is she permitted to travel to perform the obligatory Hajj? Okay, thank you.
The Shaykh:
No, my brother, she does not travel while she is in the waiting period until she completes it. She remains in the marital home until she completes four months and ten days. As long as she is in the waiting period due to death, it is not permissible for her to travel, neither for Hajj nor for anything else.
