Haouas, who plays as a prop for the Montpellier team in southern France, had been in police custody since Friday. Sports paper L'Equipe reported the court had chosen a so-called adjustable sentence, allowing the player to effectively stay out of prison.
The verdict, which was milder than the 18-month sentence demanded by prosecutors, casts doubt over Hoaouas' possible call-up for France's team at the next World Cup the country will host this autumn.
Haouas' lawyer did not reply to a Reuters request for comment. It was not immediately clear whether Haouas planned to appeal the ruling.
Last year, Haouas was given a 18-month suspended prison sentence for robbery, also dating from 2014.
