What is the legal consequence if the husband pronounces the oath of *li'an* (imprecation) and then dies before the completion of the mutual imprecation or before the wife's imprecation?

Primary text

If the husband pronounces the oath and then dies before its completion or before the wife's oath, the *li'an* is nullified, and the child is legitimized and inherits from the husband, according to the consensus of scholars. This is because the complete ruling of *li'an* was not established since its cause was not fully realized. The ruling is established only upon the completion of the cause.
