One young woman is spending her time of ‘iddah’ after her husband died in the home of her in-laws, out of the fear of not being able to maintain her hijab and also to prevent other forms of oppression is she allowed to leave that house and choose some other place to finish her time of ‘iddah’?
To avoid sin and to protect oneself from the oppression one can do that.
