Question:
May Allah reward you. A message from Abu 'Abdullah. He says: Honorable Shaykh, I accused my wife of zina, may Allah protect us from that, and I told her that the child is not mine, and I was lying. This was due to problems between my family and her family. After that, I asked for a divorce, so I divorced her. I am now deeply regretful of what came out of me, and I fear the punishment of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Allah knows that I tried to get her to forgive me, but to no avail. Now, Honorable Shaykh, what should I do so that Allah forgives me for the crime I committed? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
You have committed a great sin, and you have wronged this woman, and you have wronged the child whose lineage you denied, and you were lying in that. So you must repent to Allah, Mighty and Majestic, and you must seek forgiveness from this woman, asking her to forgive you and pardon you, because you have wronged her. You must ask her for forgiveness. And if you made this public to the people, and you made this accusation public to the people, then you must declare that you were lying and clear this woman’s name. Yes.
