‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “A woman whose husband is missing and whose whereabouts is unknown to her must wait for four years and then observe the ‘Iddah (of a widow) for four months and ten days. After that, she is allowed to marry.”
Source textOriginal Arabic
عن عمر بن الخطاب أنه قال: «أَيُّمَا امرأة فَقَدَتْ زوجها فلم تَدْرِ أين هو؟ فإنها تَنْتَظِرُ أَرْبَعَ سِنِينَ، ثم تَعْتَدُّ أَرْبَعَةَ أشهر وعشرا ثم تَحِلُّ».
