Question:
She said: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some women, when they complete the mourning period for their husband, take a ritual bath. Is this correct?

Among the common people, they have certain practices for a woman to exit the waiting period following her husband's death: that she goes out at night, that she goes out with something, that a sacrifice is slaughtered for her, and so on. They have various things[Yusuf 12:40].
