Question:
The Shaykh’s case: If a man dies before the time is fixed, does the woman count that day as part of the waiting period? And if he dies after Maghrib, is that day counted?
Answer:
One hundred and twenty days, starting from the time of his death until the same hour in which he died. It begins from the hour he died; you count one hundred and twenty days from his death until the hour in which he died arrives on the eight hundred and thirtieth day.
