The ruling on having intercourse with one's wife during the day in Ramadan while traveling

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, on one of the days of Ramadan, my wife was traveling with her family to visit her brother,

The Shaykh:
she was on her period.

The questioner:
On one of the days of Ramadan, my wife was traveling with her family to visit her brother, and I caught up with her after a while in the same month, then I had intercourse with her, and I told her that we are traveling. Is there anything required of me, given that we made up that day?

The Shaykh:
If you were traveling, there is no harm. It is permissible for a traveler to break his fast and to have intercourse because he is traveling. If the rulings of travel have not been lifted from you, meaning you have not stayed a stay that would end the rulings of travel, your stay is brief, your travel is the distance of a full day, and the town is not your home town, then there is no harm in that. Yes.
