سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا أَ تَخْرُجُ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا وَ أُمِّهَا مِنْ بَيْتِهَا إِنْ شَاءَتْ فَتَعْتَدُّ فَقَالَ إِنْ شَاءَتْ أَنْ تَعْتَدَّ فِي بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا اعْتَدَّتْ وَ إِنْ شَاءَتِ اعْتَدَّتْ فِي أَهْلِهَا وَ لَا تَكْتَحِلُ وَ لَا تَلْبَسُ حُلِيّاً .
Translation
Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali, or someone else from Aban Bin Usman, from Abdullah Bin Suleyman who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the woman widowed from her husband, should she go out to the house of her father and her mother from her house if she so desires to, so she observes the waiting period?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If she so desires to she observes the waiting period in the house of her husband, and if she so desires to she observes the waiting period among her family, and she should not apply Kohl nor wear jewellery’.
