Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh
 
If a woman is in her ῾iddah, she can not go for Haj. This is irrespective of whether the ῾iddah is due to the death of her husband or because of divorce. Therefore, she will have to go next year accompanied with a mahram.
(Bahisti Zewar, Pg.361, Zam Zam)
