2301. ‘Aṭā’ narrated that Ibn ‘Abbās said: “This Verse has abrogated her waiting period at her house. Therefore, she may pass her waiting period wherever she pleases.” And this was in reference to the statement of Allāh: ... “without expelling her.”[1] ‘Aṭā’ said: “(In the beginning), if she had wished, she could pass the waiting period in his house and be provided maintenance based on his will. And if she had wished, she could leave, based on Allāh’s statement: “So if they leave, there is no sin upon you regarding what they do.”[2] Then, the (laws) of inheritance were revealed, so the ruling of living (at her husband’s house) was abrogated. She may pass her waiting period wherever she wishes.” (Sahih)

2301 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شِبْلٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَطَاءٌ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: " نَسَخَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: عِدَّتَهَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِهَا فَتَعْتَدُّ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: غَيْرَ إِخْرَاجٍ "، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ: " إِنْ شَاءَتْ اعْتَدَّتْ عِنْدَ أَهْلِهِ، وَسَكَنَتْ فِي وَصِيَّتِهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءَتْ خَرَجَتْ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {فَإِنْ خَرَجْنَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِيمَا فَعَلْنَ}، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ: ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْمِيرَاثُ، فَنَسَخَ السُّكْنَى تَعْتَدُّ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ "
