A man who has intercourse with his wife while the mu'adhdhin is calling for the Fajr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q1: What is the ruling on intercourse during the day in Ramadan ? Knowing that the ruling was unknown to both the husband and the wife, and that the intercourse during the day in Ramadan was with the consent of both parties, as the husband was traveling and had the right to break his fast, while the wife was a resident.
Q2: Intercourse took place during the day in Ramadan with the husband's consent and the wife's hesitation . During that day, we traveled to an area about 90 km away to be in the status of travelers, while being unaware of the ruling on breaking the fast during the day in Ramadan, and we did not know that the expiation was two consecutive months of fasting. Is the fasting to be done before Ramadan or at any other time, and is it permissible to feed sixty poor people instead of fasting two consecutive months?
A1, 2: Each of the husband and wife must make up the day, and each of them owes an expiation, which is freeing a slave. Whoever does not find one must fast two consecutive months. Whoever cannot do that must feed sixty poor people, along with repentance to Allah. This is because when the husband returned from his journey to his home, he was obligated to abstain from food and drink due to the end of his travel upon his arrival, and the fact that they
traveled after the intercourse does not exempt them from the expiation, and the fasting for the expiation is not required to precede the second Ramadan; rather, it is a debt in the conscience.
