Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the waiting period ('iddah) of a divorced woman? Does she remain in her home until the waiting period ends, or does she leave?
Answer:
In the case of a revocable divorce, the ruling is that of a wife. She retains the rights of a wife regarding residence and financial maintenance, and he has the right to take her back if he wishes. If her waiting period ends, she is divorced from him. As for the woman divorced with a final divorce, she has no right to financial maintenance or residence from the divorcer. However, if he does her a favor by providing her with residence and financial support, that is a matter of kindness, not an obligation. Yes.
