What is the ruling on an uncle committing adultery with his brother's daughter, knowing that both of them are aware of the ruling, but the daughter repents while her uncle forces her, and the girl wants to conceal the matter after a young man proposes to her, and her uncle did not penetrate her in the vagina?

Adultery is one of the most heinous crimes, and incest is an even greater offense. The girl should not allow her uncle to approach her, and she should avoid being alone with him. She should threaten to expose him, and if he does not desist, she should report him to someone who can restrain him. If a righteous husband proposes to her, she should accept him and conceal her past, not informing anyone of what happened.
