The ruling on a woman going out during the day while in the waiting period of mourning for work and seeking a livelihood

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does a female trader have to stop going to her shop where she sells in a market exclusively for women during the waiting period of mourning, or is it permissible for her to go there?

Answer:
If this is out of a pressing need, such that her financial maintenance depends on seeking a livelihood during the day, there is nothing wrong with it; she may go out during the day to seek a livelihood. But if it is not out of such a need, but rather to increase her wealth, then no, she does not go out. Yes.
