The waiting period of the divorced woman whose menstruation was delayed due to breastfeeding

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the waiting period of the divorced woman whose menstruation was delayed due to breastfeeding, and is she to be proposed to while she is in her waiting period?

The Shaykh:
No, if she knows what caused the cessation of menstruation, she waits until it returns and observes the waiting period with it. And if she knows that breastfeeding is what caused it to cease, she waits. What is hastening her? She waits until menstruation returns and observes the waiting period with it. Yes.

The questioner:
And is she to be proposed to while she is in her waiting period?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible for her to leave the waiting period. She leaves it after the waiting period ends, but she may be proposed to indirectly, by way of indirect proposal, and there is no harm in that. As for a direct proposal, it is not permissible. Yes.
