The ruling on intercourse during the day in Ramadan for a traveler

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says that he traveled from one area to another during the day in Ramadan. He says that during a rest stop in the middle area, he had intercourse with his wife during the day in Ramadan. What is the ruling? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
If the place you traveled to is a distance of qasr (shortening the prayer), eighty kilometers or more, then you have the dispensation to break your fast and have intercourse with your wife. However, if it is less than eighty kilometers, it is not permissible for you to do so, and you must make up the day, and you owe the kaffarah (expiation), which is fasting two consecutive months.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
