A Study on the Shari‘ah about the waiting period(Iddah) for a divorced or a widow: On the focus of the types and periods of Iddah

This paper aims to study the Shari‘ah regulations about the waiting period, that is Iddah, for a Muslim divorced or a widow. Actually Iddah has a relation to the wedding and the divorce which are very complicated. It is impossible for this paper to examine the whole situations about Iddah. So it is better to focus the types and periods of Iddah. The Shari‘ah regulations of Iddah were enacted by the process of the three steps, that is, Koran, Hadith(Sunnah), law schools. The first Koran told the five types and periods, and the second Hadith(Sunnah) extended to the eight types and periods, and then finally the four Sunni schools of law subdivided them to the twenty types and periods. In modern times some Arab countries accepted the Shari‘ah regulations about Iddah and reflected to the family law.
