Ruling on Intercourse with the Wife from the Rear

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 19325 )
Q1: What is the ruling on having intercourse with the wife from the rear without inserting into the anus? One of the brothers mentioned that the prohibition applies only to the one who performs the insertion; he argued for this with the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he said:
Who is the one who performs the insertion? He cites in support of this the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he said:
May Allah curse the one who has intercourse with a woman in her anusلعن الله من أتى المرأة في دبرها
May Allah reward us for you with the best reward.

A1: The husband may have intercourse with his wife and enjoy her at any time, except for intercourse during menstruation and post-natal bleeding. He may take pleasure in her in any manner, facing forward or backward, in the same orifice, which is the vagina; for Allah the Exalted said:
Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wishنِسَاؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَكُمْ فَأْتُوا حَرْثَكُمْ أَنَّى شِئْتُمْ
[Al-Baqarah 2:223]
However, it is forbidden for him to insert into the anus; for he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
God is not ashamed of the truth. Do not have intercourse with women through the anus.إن الله لا يستحي من الحق، لا تأتوا النساء في أدبارهن
Mishkat al-Masabih 3192
Narrated by Ibn Majah And what was narrated by Ibn Majah also from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):
Allah will not look at a man who has intercourse with his wife in her buttocks.لا ينظر الله إلى رجل جامع امرأته في دبرها
Sunan Ibn Majah 1923Sahih (Darussalam)
And his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:
He who has intercourse with his wife through her anus is accursed.ملعون من أتى امرأته في دبرها
Sunan Abi Dawud 2162Hasan (Al-Albani)
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said: Intercourse with a woman in her anus is forbidden by the Book and the Sunnah, and by the statement of the majority of the Salaf and the Khalaf. Indeed, it is minor sodomy. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
