The ruling on a woman in her waiting period going out to work or visiting the hospital

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from one of the sisters. She asks about the ruling on a woman in her waiting period going out to perform her job, whether teaching or nursing, or visiting the hospital for appointments to check on her medical condition.

Answer:
If she has an appointment at the hospital, she goes out during the day for the appointment so that it does not pass her by, as she needs it. As for her going out to work while she is in the waiting period after her husband's death, if she needs to work because she has no financial maintenance and needs to go out to work, there is no harm in that, but it must be during the day, not at night. Yes.
