Question:
How can i do kufara if i cheated on my husband and got pregnant by someone else? My husband said he forgive but i still want to do kufara.
Answer:
You breached your husband’s rights and honor by committing this awful sin. Repent, adhere to Hijab, make as much Istighfar as possible and do good deeds. Do not loose hope in Allah’s mercy, do not despair.
We would advise you to conceal your sin. Don’t inform anyone about it. The child legally belongs to your husband as he is the owner of the bed. “The child is for the bed.” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
