It is permissible for a woman in 'iddah to go to her workplace without adornment

Question: My deceased brother’s wife works at a girls’ school. Is it permissible for her to go to the school before completing her 'iddah, given her urgent need for this job to earn a livelihood for her children, especially since her absence would result in her dismissal? Please advise us. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer: In the name of Allah, and all praise is due to Allah... There is no blame on her in this; because this work is a pressing need, and a woman in 'iddah is permitted to go out for her needs, provided she takes care to leave off what Allah has forbidden her during the period of 'iddah; namely beautiful clothing, perfume, kohl, and jewelry.
