Changing Clothing Daily During Iddat
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Q. Is it allowed for a woman in her iddat to change her clothing daily for the sake of cleanliness and neatness?
A. A woman in iddat should not resort to adornment. This does not mean that cleanliness is not permitted. She shall remain clean without adorning herself.
We are not aware of your interpretation of ‘neatness’. The nafs of the human being is a great deceiver. It misleads one in a subtle and cunning way. Anyway, everyone is aware of the motive of the heart. No matter what excuses one puts forward, one knows what lurks in one’s heart.
In short, during her iddat period, a woman is not allowed to adorn herself and dress in beautiful garments.
