The ruling on a woman completing the waiting period for her husband’s death in her parents’ home

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: Regarding a woman’s waiting period for her husband’s death, is it permissible for her to complete the waiting period in her parents’ home?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Regarding a woman’s waiting period for her husband’s death, is it permissible for her to complete the waiting period in her parents’ home?

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible except for a valid religious excuse. If the house is rented and the lease has ended and the landlord has evicted her, or if the house is defective and there is a fear it will collapse, or if she feels lonely in the house and has no one there to keep her company, then if it is for such an excuse, there is no harm in her moving out. However, if there is no excuse, she must remain in it. Stay in the house until the decree of the Book is fulfilled. Yes.
