The answer

Adultery is one of the most heinous sins, but Allah accepts the sincere repentance of His servant and replaces evil deeds with good ones. Repentance involves abandoning the sin, regretting it, and resolving not to return to it, while concealing oneself. The basic principle is that the child belongs to the marriage bed, and the daughter is attributed to the husband. The questioner should not pay attention to doubt but should continue with sincere repentance and multiply good deeds, for repentance erases what came before it, and Allah accepts repentance from His servants and pardons evil deeds.
