Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a woman in the waiting period after her husband's death to go out on a nature walk to relax?
Answer:
Once her waiting period has ended, if Allah wills, she may go out and relax with her mahram (a relative one may not marry) and her group. As for the ruling of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He), the woman whose husband has died must stay in the house until her waiting period ends. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He said to the woman whose husband has died: "Stay in the house" Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1204Sahih (Darussalam). Yes.
