    will the iddat still be valid if a girl has been living separately at parents house for 6 months and the matter of giving divorce has been finalised between both parties but the papers haven’t been signed yet?

    If there has been no marital relationship between the husband and the wife, then there is no iddah.

    The basic purpose of ‘iddah is to determine whether a lady is pregnant or not. This is necessary to protect the lineage of the child. Hence in all cases where one is absolutely sure that the widow is not pregnant there shall be no ‘iddah. Obviously in such a case there shall be no other restrictions of the ‘iddah as well.
