The manner of residence of the divorced woman and the widow

It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that (his) maternal aunt was divorced three times. She went out to cut (the fruit of) date palms, and a man met her and forbade her. She came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned that to him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go out and cut your dates, for perhaps you will give charity or do some good." Muslim narrated it.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The date palms of the Ansar were close to their homes, and they would cut the dates in the morning.
Muslim recorded it.

It is narrated from Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) that on the day of Uhud a number of men were martyred and their wives were widowed, and they (the women) were neighbours in one compound. They came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, we feel lonely at night, so we spend the night with one of us; then when morning comes we hurry back to our houses." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Talk together at the house of one of you as long as you like; then when you want to sleep, let each one of you return to her own house."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that it is not permissible for a woman to spend even one night away from her own house while she is in the 'iddah of her husband's death or the 'iddah of divorce.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that a divorced woman and a woman whose husband has died may go out during the day, but they should not spend a whole night in anyone's house other than their own.
It is narrated from Sufyan: Musa bin Uqbah narrated to me from Nafi', from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), that a woman who has been irrevocably divorced may visit during the day, but should not spend the night anywhere other than her own house.
It is narrated from Alqamah that the women of the Hamdan tribe received news of (the death of) their husbands. They asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him): We feel lonely. He instructed them to gather together during the day, and when night came, each woman should return to her own house.
It is narrated from a man of the tribe of Aslam that a woman asked Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her): Her husband had died; could she visit her father who was ill? Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Spend one of the two halves of the night in your own house.

It is narrated from Yahya bin Sa'id: It reached me that Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib bin Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) died, and his wife came to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). She mentioned the death of her husband, and also mentioned to him their farmland, which was at a place called Qanah, and asked him whether it was proper for her to spend the night there. He forbade her from that. So she would leave Madinah before dawn, spend the day on their farmland, being there in the morning, then when evening came she would enter Madinah and spend the night in her own house.
