The answer

A woman observing ' (waiting period) after her husband's death is required to stay in her home at night and is not permitted to go out except for necessity. Tarawih prayers are not considered a necessity. However, she is permitted to go out during the day for work and to fulfill her needs, such as visiting a hospital or purchasing necessities. Therefore, there is no harm in her working at a grocery store during the day. As for eating from trees planted in graveyards, there is no harm in it, knowing that women are forbidden from visiting graves.
