Living separately during iddat
Question
During Iddah, it is haram for the wife to live away from the husband. Is it the same thing for the husband? Can he leave her and live separately?
Answer
Yes, he can if he wishes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
