The divorced woman’s remaining in her husband’s house during the waiting period

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a man divorces his wife three times, and she is now in the waiting period, does she remain with him in the same house, or does she leave?

Answer:
She remains in the house, but she must keep herself apart from him and guard herself against him.
Do not turn them out of their [husbands'] housesلَا تُخْرِجُوهُنَّ مِن بُيُوتِهِنَّ
[At-Talaq 65:1]
She has the right to stay with him, especially if she has children. Yes, she does.
