Intercourse during menstruation out of ignorance and its expiation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Abu Naif is with us. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. May Allah keep you safe, may Allah keep you safe, Shaykh Salih.

The Shaykh:
May Allah reward you with good.

The questioner:
Shaykh, I have a question, may Allah preserve you. I had intercourse with my wife and I did not know it was her period until after the intercourse was finished, and she did not know about it either. After the intercourse was finished, the blood came. The second question, may Allah preserve you. Yes. Will you answer, Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
Yes, intercourse
And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure. And when they have purified themselves, then come to them from where Allah has ordained for you. Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves."فِي

forbidden, so it is forbidden. However, as long as you did not know and she did not know, the sin is absent, praise be to Allah. But the expiation for it is an expiation, which is a dinar or half of it, meaning a mithqal of gold, a mithqal of gold or half a mithqal, to be given in charity to the poor. Yes.

The questioner:
The second question. There was no blood on her, may Allah keep you safe, before or after we finished the intercourse, the blood came, she did not know and I did not know, before, if it did not happen

The Shaykh:
during the intercourse, then there is nothing on you. But if the blood came out before the intercourse, but you did not know and she did not know about it, then there is an expiation for it, but Allah does not hold you accountable for the sin because you did not intend it. Yes.
