It ends at the emergence of true Fajr(fajr ul sadiq ), and when the second Athaan of Fajr starts.
• Is it permissible for a man to propose to a woman during her `Iddah(waiting period)?
It is impermissible to propose to a woman in her `Iddah, but there is no harm in making an implication to such an end in case she was observing it due to the death of her husband.
