Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: If a woman gives birth, and her husband dies at the very moment of the birth, what is her waiting period?

Answer:
If she gave birth before he died, her waiting period is four months and ten days. But if she did not give birth until after his death, then if she gives birth after his death, she exits the waiting period upon giving birth, even if it is only a moment later. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, Honorable Shaykh.
