Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: You mentioned, may Allah preserve you, last night that the one who has intercourse with his wife while she is menstruating owes an expiation of one dinar or half a dinar. He asks: Does this dinar or this expiation apply to both the man and the woman?

Answer:
If she consented, yes, it is obligatory on her. If he forced her, then she owes nothing. Yes.
