Question
A woman was separated from her husband for many years. He never gave her Talaaq. During his final sickness, relatives persuaded her to return just to nurse him and to take care. She complied. After staying with him for a week, he died. Can she pass her Iddat at her parents in another city?
Answer
She has to remain at her husband's home during the Iddat. Only if there is a valid reason, may she go to her parents for the Iddat period.
