The Waiting Period of a Woman Whose Husband Has Died Before Consummation
A woman was contracted to her husband, and before consummation, he died. Does she have a waiting period?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The waiting period for a widow is the same as that for a married woman, which is four months and ten days, and God knows best.
