Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a husband dies and his wife is in the early stages of her pregnancy, it is known that her waiting period ends with the delivery of the child. But does the mourning period last for the entire duration of the pregnancy, or for four months and ten days?

Answer:
The duration of the pregnancy. The mourning period follows the waiting period; as long as she is in her waiting period, she observes the mourning period. Yes.
