    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (1) It is very bad to commit adultery after marriage. However it does not invalidate the nikah.
    (2) If adultery is proved, the adulterer or adulteress shoulbe stoned to death as punishment. However in countries like India, these penal code are not in force, so such persons should do tauba and istighfar wholeheartedly, and should completely avoid such malicious deeds in future.
