The question

Is it correct to continue working in a tourist place that conflicts with the hijab and performing obligatory prayers, or is it better to get married and work in a way that pleases Allah at home? And is it permissible to attribute an illegitimate child to the man who will be married, with his knowledge and consent?

The answer

Praise be to Allah Almighty for her repentance and congratulations to her on forgiveness, reminding her that “The one who repents from sin is like the one who has no sin.” He advises her to leave work in hotels and tourism due to mixing and temptations, and to take care of her home, husband, and children. He believes that her family's estrangement might be due to their unawareness of her repentance, and advises her to continue communicating with them and inform them of her change. He affirms the impermissibility of attributing a child to other than his father, and that it is a grave sin. If the system necessitates attributing the child to a father in official documents, then it is preferable that he be attributed to his biological father if possible, otherwise to a general name, or to whoever adopts him with the truth declared.
