What if a man found out that one of his children was sired by another man?
Question:
Dear Beloved,
If, after nearly 15 years in marriage, a brother later discovers that one of his children isn't his, does he have the right to divorce and remarry based on deception and infidelity?
Thank you for your time!
Answer:
It would depend. Was this due to a momentary weakness, which the wife repented of and never allowed to happen again? Then she has shown true repentance and should be forgiven. Alternatively, if this is yet another piece of evidence in a long list of suspicions that hasn't stopped, then the husband would be within his rights to end the marriage.
