The waiting period of a pregnant woman whose husband has died
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener: Abdulmun'im Fadl Allah Mustafa sent a question, saying: One of my relatives passed away, leaving behind his wife who had not yet completed one year of marriage with him. During the waiting period, she became pregnant. After some time, she gave birth to a son. After completing the forty days following delivery, she married immediately. Is there any blame in that?
Answer:
There is no blame in that; because she exits the waiting period by giving birth, even if she marries during the post-natal bleeding. There is no blame, but the husband must not approach her, nor have intercourse with her, until she is purified.
The point is: the waiting period ended with the delivery of the child. If she married during the post-natal bleeding, or after the post-natal bleeding, there is no blame... But if she married during the post-natal bleeding, the contract is valid, but the husband is not permitted to have intercourse with her until she is purified.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
