Ngokwesiko lamaSulumane, igama I-IDDA, obeye aziwe njengo I-IDDAT, isho isikhathi esibalulekile kwabesifazane abangamaSulumane ngemva kokuphela komshado wabo. Lo mkhosi awusona nje isibopho senkolo kuphela kodwa futhi ufeza imisebenzi ebalulekile yezenhlalo neyomndeni.
Umqondo we-IDAH uqala ukusebenza lapho owesifazane ehlangabezana nokuchithwa komshado wakhe ngesehlukaniso noma ngokushona komyeni wakhe. Lesi sikhathi sokulinda, esichazwe ngu Sharia, kubalulekile ngenxa yezizathu eziningana, ngokuyinhloko ukuqinisekisa ukuthi owesifazane ukhulelwe, okuthinta ifa nokucaca kohlu lozalo. Kowesifazane ohlukanisile, i-IDDAH ihlala izinyanga ezintathu, kuyilapho umfelokazi egcina inkathi yezinyanga ezine nezinsuku eziyishumi ngokusekelwe ekhalendeni lenyanga. Nokho, uma owesifazane ekhulelwe, ukulinda kuyaqhubeka kuze kube yilapho ebeletha, okugqamisa ukubaluleka kwenkathi yezinto eziphilayo nezomthetho.
Ngesikhathi se-IDDA, abesifazane kulindeleke ukuthi bahlale emakhaya abo omshado. Uma owesifazane ezwa ngokufa komyeni wakhe ngesikhathi engekho, kufanele abuyele ngokushesha lapho ehlala khona umyeni wakhe, egcizelela ukugcizelela kwesiko endaweni yokuhlala yomshado. Le mfuneko iqinisekisa ukuthi noma yiziphi izinguquko esimweni somshado sowesifazane zenzeka ngokusobala nangenhlonipho ngeziqondiso zenkolo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, umthetho wamaSulumane ubeka imingcele ekuzilungiseni komuntu siqu nokubonakala komphakathi ngesikhathi se-IDDA. Abesifazane bayelulekwa ukuba bangenzi bahle, okuhlanganisa ukugqoka usilika noma ezinye izindwangu zikanokusho, okubonisa inkathi yokuzindla kanye nesizotha. Nakuba imithetho iqinile, kunezibonelelo ezikhona zemisebenzi ebalulekile njengokufuna usizo lwezokwelapha, ukuphatha izimo eziphuthumayo ezingalindelekile, noma ukufeza izidingo zokunakekela izingane—imisebenzi ngokuvamile eyenziwa lapho ezinye izindlela zingatholakali.
Ukugcinwa kwe-IDDAH kuyimpoqo futhi kufanele kuqale ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho ukuhlakazwa komshado ngaphandle kokulibala. Ukungazi lutho ngalezi zidingo akuthethelelwa ngaphakathi kwegunya lamaSulumane. Ukucatshangelwa okukhethekile, njengesidingo sowesifazane sokuziphilisa, kubhekwana nayo ngezingxoxo nabaholi benkolo, okubonisa ukulingana phakathi kwemisebenzi yendabuko nezidingo zesimanje.
Ngemva kokuqeda i-IDDAH, abesifazane banenkululeko yokuphinde bashade, okuqinisekiswe kabusha yizimiso zamaSulumane ezibusa iziphakamiso ezivulekile nezisemthethweni zomshado. Le ndlela ehlelekile iqinisekisa izinguquko ezinenhlonipho futhi ivimbela ukuhlelwa okuyimfihlo. Nakuba okunye okuhlukile kuvumela abesifazane abanomthwalo wemfanelo wezezimali womndeni ukuba baphume endlini baye emsebenzini phakathi nosuku, lokhu kuncike ekungabibikho kwezinye izindlela zokuxhasa ngezimali futhi kugqamisa ukuzivumelanisa nezimo kwezimfundiso zamaSulumane nezinselele zamanje.
Kuyo yonke i-IDDAH, abantu besifazane bagcina amalungelo okugcinwa kwezimali kumafa abayeni babo, okuqinisekisa ukuzinza kwabo kwezomnotho. Lezi zinhlinzeko zifakazela ukulingana okucatshangelwayo ngaphakathi komthetho wamaSulumane phakathi kokugcinwa kokomoya kanye nezidingo ezingokoqobo.
I-IDDA ime njengobufakazi benhlanganisela eyinkimbinkimbi yezibopho zomthetho, zomphakathi, nezenkolo eziqondisa izimpilo zabesifazane bamaSulumane ngemva komshado. Lesi sikhathi sibalulekile, hhayi nje ekubhekeni izimfundiso zenkolo, kodwa nasekunikezeni ukucaca nokuqhubeka ezindabeni zomuntu siqu nezomndeni.
