The questioner : May peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you, O honorable Shaykh. I have a domestic worker whose husband died in her country, and she is working.

The Shaykh : What? What? I have.

The questioner : I have a domestic worker whose husband died in her country, and she is working for me inside the Kingdom. Where should this servant observe her waiting period, in my house, or is it necessary for her to do so in my house? Please note that I am going to Makkah to catch up on the remainder of the month of Ramadan. Or is it obligatory for her to return to her country to complete her waiting period there?

The Shaykh : She has the choice. If she wishes, she may go to her country and complete the waiting period there, and if she wishes, she may continue her journey. Yes.
