The answer

For repentance from injustices against people, four conditions are stipulated: abandoning the sin, regretting having committed it, resolving not to return to it, and clearing oneself with the person whose right was violated. It is obligatory to return the financial fine unjustly taken from the husband and to seek his forgiveness for the harm and criminal record you caused. You can seek assistance from people of good character. If your confession to the court about the lie would remove the harm from him, then it is obligatory for you to do so. Good deeds do not expiate injustices against people.
