Commitment to the Rules of 'Iddah
A woman whose husband passed away thirty years ago did not adhere to the rules of 'iddah due to her lack of knowledge. Is she sinful for that?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is forbidden for a woman to neglect the rules of the waiting period, and she has sinned by her action, and she must repent and seek forgiveness, and God knows best.
