In general, a Muslim widow must continue to live in the home of her deceased husband for four months after his death. She may, however, go out to shop, for medical care, and even for work, if necessary. This waiting period gives her time to get over the early stages of mourning and prepare for her future. If she is pregnant, she must continue in her husband's home until after delivery, and may continue to stay for as long as two years, if she is breastfeeding her child. During this time she is entitled to the support, comfort, and protection of her in-laws.

What should a Muslim do when a ruler does not live up to his obligations?

Frankly speaking, no human being lives up to his obligations. If a ruler does not live up to his obligations and yet his rule is established and he is followed by the majority, no Muslim has the right to rebel (Khrooj) against him. The Muslim scholars, though, are divided in their opinion, yet most of them say that to avoid bloodshed of the Muslims, the ruler should be advised by the scholars to mend his ways. Yet, rebellion will be Un-Islamic if it results into bloodshed, disorder and disharmony in the Muslim society. A common Muslim should try to live up to his own obligations.
