assalamualaikum
i am a 28 year old women who got divorced two years ago. since my iddah completed i have been working to support myself even though my father has promised to support me and has NOT done so. recently in this blessed month i woke up with an intense feeling to go into purdah,as the days go by i refuse to go out for fear of feeling “naked” my mother and father are divorced and i live with my mother
as a result of me wanting to go into purdah i am having difficulty finding work in the western world.my father refuses to support me in terms of necessary sustanance because i am living with my mother and not him and his new wife. please advise as none of the males in his family will support me. my heart breaks as i feel purdah is what i need to complete what is missing in my life and to become closer to my creator.
shukran
