Hadith.4607 - Umar ibn Udhaynah narrated from Zurara, who said
I asked Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) about the waiting period ('Iddah) for a woman in a Mut'ah (temporary marriage) if her husband passes away. Imam (as) replied: "It is four months and ten days." Then Imam (as) continued: "O Zurara, for every type of marriage-whether the woman is free or a slave, and regardless of whether the marriage was permanent (Nikah), temporary (Mut'ah), or through ownership (Milk Yamin)-if the husband dies, the waiting period ('Iddah) is four months and ten days." "However, the waiting period ('Iddah) for a divorced woman is three months, and for a divorced female slave, it is half the waiting period of a free woman. Similarly, the waiting period ('Iddah) for a woman in Mut'ah is the same as that for a female slave."
4607 - وَ رَوَى عُمَرُ بْنُ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مَا عِدَّةُ اَلْمُتْعَةِ إِذَا مَاتَ عَنْهَا اَلَّذِي تَمَتَّعَ بِهَا قَالَ "أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَ عَشْراً" قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ "يَا زُرَارَةُ كُلُّ نِكَاحٍ إِذَا مَاتَ عَنْهَا اَلزَّوْجُ فَعَلَى اَلْمَرْأَةِ حُرَّةً كَانَتْ أَوْ أَمَةً أَوْ عَلَى أَيِّ وَجْهٍ كَانَ اَلنِّكَاحُ مِنْهُ مُتْعَةً أَوْ تَزْوِيجاً أَوْ مِلْكَ يَمِينٍ فَالْعِدَّةُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَ عَشْراً وَ عِدَّةُ اَلْمُطَلَّقَةِ ثَلاَثَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَ اَلْأَمَةُ اَلْمُطَلَّقَةُ عَلَيْهَا نِصْفُ مَا عَلَى اَلْحُرَّةِ وَ كَذَلِكَ اَلْمُتْعَةُ عَلَيْهَا مِثْلُ مَا عَلَى اَلْأَمَةِ".
