Does a wife deserve post-divorce maintenance (nafaqat idda) and when, and does she deserve spousal maintenance (nafaqa zawjiyya) during the period of litigation in the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court, given that the divorce for harm (talaq lil-darar) was affirmed on November 21, 1997, then its enforcement was suspended, then it was re-affirmed on April 4, 1998?

There is no maintenance (nafaqa) for the wife during the waiting period (iddah (definition)) of an irrevocable divorce due to harm, unless she is pregnant, in which case she is entitled to maintenance, based on the Almighty's saying: "And if they are pregnant, then spend on them until they deliver their burden." If she is breastfeeding, she is entitled to a breastfeeding wage, based on the Almighty's saying: "And if they breastfeed for you, then give them their due payment." She is also entitled to maintenance during the litigation period if she is not disobedient (nashiz), because she is legally a wife until the court rules on her divorce.
