Question:
The questioner says: A divorce occurred between me and my husband, and it was the first divorce, a revocable one. Allah decreed that my husband would pass away in a car accident while I was in the waiting period of the divorce. Do I have the right to inherit from his wealth? And does it transition to the waiting period of widowhood, or not?

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
