As far as outer hijab and Islamic dress-code for women, wearing a 'abayah or chador is not compulsory, unless it is the common custom of a particular society, and not wearing it will be seen as bad.  

In brief, wearing of modest and loose clothes, is enough, as long as deflects any attention of men.

Slavery rules were never started by Muslims but were already existing in different societies of the time when Islam came. Slavery rules are an outcome of wars. Islamic rules aimed to diminish slavery and finish it off. Slavery rules can not be taken as permanent rules for life but only in war and after war under many conditions.

Slave female from war between Nin Muslims against Muslims is not like a full wife of the owner who has the full rights of justice between her and other wife and inheritance from her husband. When the Muslims marries his owned female (Aman), she will then have all rights if the wife. With out marriage, she is called Sariyyah.

She can remarry the same man after she invalidates the Khul’a by talking back what she gave to him,then the Khul’a will turn into usual Talaq and then she can re marry to him. Most people misunderstand the meaning if Khula and think that it a one sided divorce from the wife to her husband. Khul’a in fact is a type of Talaq in which the wife gives an amount to her husband to make agree to divorce her, i.e. she pays him to free her from the bond of marriage. If she takes back what she gave him, the Khul’a will be invalid and the divorce will be a usual one Talaq.

Yes, post-menopausal woman does not require to observe Iddah after divorce or termination of a temporary marriage. This rule is only for those women who have no menstruation because of their passing the age of menstruation. This rule does not extend to women who had hysterectomy and no longer menstruate. Such women who are in the age of menstruation require Iddah.

It is worth mentioning that Iddah of Wafat after the death of the husband is obligatory on every wife. It is four months and ten days from her knowledge about his death.
