What is the ruling on remaining with a wife who gave birth to a baby girl, and it was proven through DNA testing that the baby girl is not the husband's biological child, with the wife being aware of this? Is it permissible for the husband to attribute the child to himself? And how can stolen money be returned to its owner if the owner cannot be reached, and is zakat obligatory on this money?

Firstly: It is not permissible, according to Islamic law, to rely on DNA to disown paternity. If the daughter was born six months or more after the legitimate and valid marriage, she is legally his daughter; otherwise, she is not. This does not preclude raising her and treating her kindly.

Secondly: There is no reason to divorce the wife as long as she has embraced Islam, repented, and become righteous. It is better for them to remain married.

Thirdly: The stolen money must be returned to its owner. It is not a condition to inform him or to deliver it yourself.

Fourthly: Zakat is obligatory on money if a full year (hawl) has passed over it. If the stolen money is returned before a hawl passes over it, there is no Zakat on it; otherwise, Zakat is due on it.

Fifthly: One must seek forgiveness from the father and treat him with kindness and honor.

Finally: Do not despair of Allah's mercy, for Allah forgives all sins for those who repent.
