This pregnancy precedes the husband and is not attributed to him, because it occurred without the minimum gestation period of six months. The hadd punishment is not imposed on the woman for denying adultery, for perhaps the pregnancy occurred through intercourse in sleep or through her brother's trousers, and this is what doctors determine. It is not permissible to shun the woman and her family because of the pregnancy unless she publicizes the sin or insists on it. And even if her adultery is proven and she does not repent, she should not be shunned except for a [legitimate] benefit.
