Question:
A man had sexual intercourse with his wife during the day
in Ramadhaan, over a period of three consecutive days. What
is required of him and may Allaah reward you?
Response:
If one has sexual intercourse (during the day in Ramadhaan)
whilst fasting, then he (/she) has committed a great sin.
It is obligatory upon him (/her) to repent to Allaah for this
and make up the fast for the day(s) in which he (/she) had
sexual intercourse.
In
addition to this, he (/she) is required to pay a penalty (kaffaarah)
which involves freeing a slave and if he (/she) is unable
to find one, then to fast two consecutive months and if he
(/she) is unable to do so, then to feed sixty poor and needy
people; and for each one is half a saa'
of food. And the penalty (kaffaarah)
recurs according to the number of days on which he (/she)
had sexual intercourse.
And
Allaah has the most knowledge (of all affairs).
