Repentance from unlawful sexual intercourse with a married woman and the lineage of the child
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks, saying: He is a man who had intercourse with a married woman, and she became pregnant with a child from him. Her husband does not know about it, because he was a man who had intercourse with a married woman, and she gave birth to a child, and her husband does not know about it because he was on a short trip. I want to repent from this. Please advise us, may Allah reward you.
Answer:
In any case, what you did is a heinous act, forbidden, and a major sin among the major sins. As for the child, he belongs to the bed; the child belongs to the husband, the husband with whom she was in a valid marriage and who is the one she was with on his bed. If he wants to disown him, it is necessary to perform the mutual oath-swearing (li'an) before the judge. Yes.
