The Ruling on the Waiting Period of a Widow Staying Outside Her Home

Question
What are the limits of the waiting period for a widow, and is it permissible for her to sleep in her son's house while in the waiting period?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: She should not leave her house except for necessity; it is not permissible for her to go to her son's house during her waiting period at all, and God knows best.
