The questioner:
Also, she is advanced in age and does not have a house to live in. Sometimes she stays with one of her sons, and sometimes with another. Her husband passed away, and her share was with one of the sons. Where should she observe the waiting period?

The Shaykh:
Her husband passed away while she was residing with the sons.

The questioner:
Yes, they are staying with him.

She must observe the waiting period with the son who died, even if she is residing with him. End of the month.
