Asalamu aleykum,urgent questions for my situation, please answer in detail and not generally:
1.- Can a man end a mutah marriage via text or does it need to be spoken verbally?
2.- If a mutah marriage between a man and woman took place with a timeset until the end of the year and they had intercourse, but the mutah was ended by the male via text on whatsapp on 23rd September 2025 while the female was on her period,… when will the iddah period be over for her?(please mention a specific date when the idda period will maximum without any doubt be over so that the woman is free, and could marry someone else)
3.- Can a women speak to another man with intentions of marriage while she is in her iddah?

As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
We hope this answer finds you in high Islamic spirit.
1- If it is certain that the text message was written by the husband and he clearly states that he ends the marriage, then it is acceptable.
2- The ʿiddah in a temporary marriage is two months or two menstrual cycles. So if the marriage ended while she was on her period, the ʿiddah will conclude at the end of the second menstrual cycle.
3- It is not allowed.
