The Ruling on the Pilgrimage of a Woman in the Waiting Period

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, who indicated her name with (A. A), says: A woman whose husband passed away while she was in the waiting period. She had intended to perform Hajj, and she performed Hajj while in the waiting period. Is her Hajj valid?

Answer:
Her Hajj is valid, but she made a mistake. It is obligatory for her not to go out; she should remain in her house until she completes the waiting period for death. However, if she performed Hajj, or went out, she would commit a sin. If she was ignorant, we ask Allah to forgive her, and the Hajj is valid.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
