Is this true?
If a woman can ascertain that she is not pregnant through medical means now, could the waiting period be skipped?
As to the Qur’an, we have the following verse:
Women who are divorced shall wait, keeping themselves apart, three (monthly) courses…. (2:228)
As to the Sunnah, there is the Prophet’s tradition commanding Fatimah bint Qays:
Observe ‘iddah in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum.
They differ, however, regarding: the ‘iddah of a wife separated from her husband due to divorce or annulment of marriage; the ‘iddah of a widow; the ‘iddah of a woman copulated by mistake; the relief of an adulteress (from menses); and the ‘iddah of a wife whose husband has disappeared.
