Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 409/361/H=3/1439)

It is haram to charge someone with adultery without a Shariah proof. However, if a woman becomes pregnant from someone else this is too haram and grave sin. However, if it happens then too the child shall belong to her husband i.e. his lineage shall belong to the husband and the child shall neither belong to the person nor he (other person) shall be the child’s father.
