Q: If a wife has not been consummated by her husband and he divorces her before consummation, does she have a waiting period for him?
A: Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ahzab 33:49] This verse is explicit in that if her husband divorces her before consummation, she has no waiting period to observe for him. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
Q: If a wife has not been consummated by her husband and he divorces her before consummation, does she have a waiting period for him?

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نَكَحْتُمُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ فَمَا لَكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ عِدَّةٍ تَعْتَدُّونَهَا
