The ruling on voluntary fasting for one who had intercourse after the dawn

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
If a person intended to perform a voluntary fast and had not yet drunk or eaten, but he had already had intercourse with his wife, is it permissible for him to fast on that day?

The Shaykh:
If he had intercourse with her during the day after the dawn, because he committed an act of violation after the dawn, yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, if it was...

The Shaykh:
Intercourse at night up to the obligatory time, up to the obligatory time. If he intended to fast the obligatory fast and had intercourse before the dawn, he is allowed to do so. Eat
So now, have relations with them and seek that which Allah has decreed for you. And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night]فَالْآنَ بَاشِرُوهُنَّ وَابْتَغُوا مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:187]
, he may eat, drink, and have intercourse until the dawn breaks, then he abstains. Even if he has not performed the ghusl from the funeral, he fasts even if he has not performed the ghusl from the funeral; he performs the ghusl afterwards.
