Answer:
Upkeep of widow
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear
witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His
Messengers.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 34 Surah
Nisaa verse 34:
34 Men are the protectors and maintainers of women because Allah has
given the one more than the other, and because they (the men) support them from
their means.
The complete financial responsibility and upkeep for the
women in Islam is the obligatory duty of the men; the father is responsible for
the complete upkeep of his daughters, the husband is responsible for the
complete upkeep of his wife, and the sons of the woman are responsible for the
upkeep of their mother.
If perchance there is a woman whose father and husband
both are deceased and she has no sons, then the responsibility of her upkeep
until her death lies upon her close relatives, upon the charity (zakah and
sadaqa) of the believers at large, and finally upon the Islamic State.
If the parents and the husband of a believing woman are
deceased, and she neither has any off-spring nor any close relatives to provide
for her, she is obviously well within her rights at all times to exercise her
option of marrying another husband who will shoulder the responsibility of
providing for her upkeep.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only
due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me
alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is
the Only Source of Strength.
Your brother and
well wisher in Islam,
