The Ruling on Forcing a Wife to Have Intercourse to Make Up Missed Days of Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: His wife was fasting to make up missed days of Ramadan, and he forced her to have intercourse. He asks: Is there anything required of my wife?
Answer:
She owes nothing, but he is the one who has sinned; he is the one who has sinned. He committed a forbidden act, may Allah protect us from that. This is a forbidden act. It is not permissible to break a fast that is obligatory, whether for making up missed days, a vow, or an expiation. It is not permissible to break an obligatory fast or to eat during it. This is an overreach; this is one of those who transgress against this woman. He must repent to Allah the Exalted and Majestic. Yes.
