Western courts would allow for the annulment of the marriage
Are you talking about all marriages or Muslim ones carried out in Western courts?
while Shari'a law would allow the husband to take more drastic measures against the wife.
You're right about that danger. I suppose the woman could keep the truth to herself and console herself with that knowledge. Or else in a final act of revenge, she could reveal that to her husband on his deathbed.
Must be an instinctive "genetic" thing.
That would be true for a simple desire for paternity. But fear of cuckoldry
may involve deeper issues.
