I received my 1st talaaq and was in my iddat period for 2months when my husband and I broke the iddat period.We did not resolve our differences though therfore he wants to issue me with the 2nd talaaq.For the 1st iddat i was excused from work but that wont be possible for the 2nd iddat.I am living with my parents ,who can support me if need be.Due to the fact that I dont want to burden them financially I dont want to resign from work.Is it wrong for me to go to work even if I go to work wearing my scarf and am dropped off by my father?I work in an office and will be in contact with men but only seldom and only professionally.
Answer:
It is not permissible for you to go out of the house in which you are spending your ?Iddat. (Raddul Muhtaar, Vol.2, Page 672, Mathaahir-e-Haqq, Vol. 3, Page 435, Fataawaa Darul Uloom Mukammal Mudallal, Vol. 10, Page 287)
