Waiting Period for Pregnancy from Zina - Jurisprudential Answers - Miscellaneous Issues, Vol 4

Question and answer [link]

Question 132

Al-Shara'i, volume 3, states: ‘If she becomes pregnant through zina and then her husband divorces her, she observes the waiting period by months, not by childbirth. If she was intercourse with under mistaken circumstances and the child is attributed to the man who had intercourse with her because the husband was absent, then the husband divorces her, she first observes the waiting period until childbirth for the man who had intercourse with her, then begins the divorce waiting period after delivery.’ If a woman becomes pregnant through zina and has no husband, does she have a specific waiting period? May she marry during pregnancy, whether the man with whom she committed zina or another man?
