Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a man to have intercourse with his wife after the contract but before he gives her the mahr?

Answer:
If the contract is completed between them, she becomes lawful to him, even if the consummation is delayed for years. The important thing is the contract with valid conditions and a valid offer and acceptance between them; she becomes lawful to him, even if the consummation is delayed.
