Question
Can a woman whose husband is in mourning go to work during her husband's mourning period?
Answer
If she works for him, it is forbidden. However, if she is employed elsewhere, it is essentially forbidden, but if the husband waives the profits, it is permitted, and she should not say 'I am not supported and I do not work.' If she works at times when women do not typically work, such as a nurse in a hospital at night, etc., it is permitted even if he does not waive the money.
