Iddat period, in case of a divorced woman, if she is subject to menstruation, means:-

  • A.Three menstrual courses after the date of divorce.
  • B.Six months period after the date of divorce.
  • C.Nine menstrual courses after the date of divorce.
  • D.Nine months period after the date of divorce.

Answer: A

For a divorced woman who menstruates, iddat is three menstrual courses after the date of divorce.

Under Muslim law a woman whose marriage has been dissolved by divorce must observe iddat before remarrying, so that paternity of any child is not in doubt. If she is subject to menstruation, the period is three courses; if she is not, it is three lunar months; and if she is pregnant, it lasts until delivery.

Six months and nine months are not periods recognised for iddat of divorce, and nine menstrual courses has no basis. (Iddat on the husband's death is a different period, four months and ten days.)
