Mubaiwa was charged with violating the Marriages Act.
In sentencing Mubaiwa, Harare magistrate Mr Lazini Ncube said she deserved a second chance and incarceration would fast track her ill-health.
He said her condition would not allow her to perform community service and would be a burden to officers where she would be performing the unpaid work.
