Waiting Period of a Widow with whom he has Gone to Bed and where she must Complete her Waiting Period and Her Obligations

الحسين بن محمد، عن معلى بن محمد، عن الحسن بن علي أو غيره عن أبان بن عثمان، عن عبد الله بن سليمان قال: سألت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن المتوفى عنها زوجها أتخرج إلى بيت أبيها وأمها من بيتها إن شاءت فتعتد؟ فقال: إن شاءت أن تعتد في بيت زوجها اعتدت وإن شاءت اعتدت في أهلها ولا تكتحل ولا تلبس حليا.
3. Al-Husayn from Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali or others from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from ‘Abd Allah ibn Sulayman who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of a widow if she can go out to the house of her father and mother from her house, if she so chooses, to complete her waiting period. He (the Imam) said, ‘If she wants to complete her waiting period in the house of her husband, she can do so. If she wants to complete it in the house of her family she must not use kohl or wear ornaments.’ ”
