The ruling on a woman who went out for Hajj and heard of her husband's death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
If a woman goes out for Hajj and, after arriving in Jeddah, hears of her husband's death, is she to complete the Hajj, or is she to sit in mourning?
She should complete the Hajj; because if she returns now, she will return by travel, and if she stays, she will remain in continuous travel. So she should complete the Hajj, especially if it is an obligatory duty, and then return afterward. Even if it is a voluntary act, she may continue.
