Is an iddah necessary if a pregnancy test comes back as negative? | Mufti Abu Layth

well right so yeah me now has asked either necessary if pregnancy contested tested negative it necessary if pregnancy is tested negative but sure so see this is uh you see but this is assuming that the edda is only for pregnancy and i've got detailed explanations explaining the explaining the wisdom some of the wisdoms behind now it is you're right

it is uh part of it is pregnancy and it's universal so everybody everywhere um can observe the edda the other part i've said in the past there's also a social element to it which people are they're kind of um the you know overseeing that i mean they they're kind of neglecting or you know maybe just blindsiding at the moment because it is an incredibly important part i would say in some ways as powerfully important as

the pregnancy because quite often when relationships break up um by relationships i mean like marriages there is a lot of resentment and there is a a lot of hostility and this kind of antipathy towards one another and there's a lot of allegations being hurled around so people and unfortunately unfortunately a lot of the time people are trying to shame the woman okay now this is utterly unacceptable but it is unfortunately what happens in human societies

um i'm not saying it's and you know it's acceptable by any standard but it is almost it is not uncommon it's it's very common that people will be like oh well you know uh she was uh she was just having an affair anyway i bet she was sleeping around and a lot of the time they shame uh women now if the woman imminently engaged in another knicker you see this may cause a kind of tear on the social fabric in in

in terms of jahili ignorant consequences that are once again not justified but they you know if we're going to be real they would probably happen in many societies even in the west i mean even here don't think that oh in these societies where people are literate and educated that they don't have basic human emotions they do i you know the amount of times i've dealt with and deal with relationships the amount of time the amount of times i've heard people and the stuff they'll say and you know they could be people who they could be professionals you know you'd think a professional wouldn't never behave in that way i'm telling you they they they go

erratic people are like you know they they i suppose rejection is difficult for people to handle they can't seem to they don't handle rejection well and the irony is even if they don't want it you know so two people living together it could be a toxic relationship and then one of them says well okay i'm gonna file for divorce and the other one feels rejected all of a sudden [Laughter] this is the problem with suddenly being shown a mirror but it's true you know at a subconscious level people

are they they can't um [Music] they can't deal with the fact that the other person doesn't want them even though it's unknown it's a known uh fact that look i don't want you you don't want me this is toxic yet the moment that is said the ego gets hurt and so this can cause all kinds of backlashes and things like this so it's better that there is a grace period something it's only at most two and a half months before uh the woman embarks on another nikkei and by the way i am of the opinion as many as many ulama that

the only prohibition for uh women during an edda is just one of nikah they can go out they can meet people they can work they can shop they can chill out it's just nika that's all cool people i hope that
