A woman in the waiting period going out to attend celebrations

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This woman is asking, and she says: Her husband has passed away, so is it permissible for her to leave the house to attend weddings and celebrations while she is in the waiting period?

Answer:
No, she does not go out except for a need. She goes out for a need, and during the day as well. There are two conditions: that her going out is for a need that she must have and that no one else can fulfill for her, and the second condition is that it be during the day. Yes.
