The Ruling on Hajj for a Woman in the Waiting Period

Question:
Now, Honorable Shaykh, we received a message from Sister Umm Abdullah. She says: As for a woman who has not performed Hajj and has reached the age of fifty, and she has had the opportunity to perform Hajj with her mahrams, but she is in the waiting period because her husband passed away before the Hajj, does she perform this obligation?

Answer:
No, as long as she is in the waiting period, she remains in the marital home until she completes the waiting period, and she postpones the Hajj to another time, if Allah wills. Yes.
