Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A man had intercourse with his wife ten times in Ramadan over the course of three years?
In one day?The questioner: No.
spread out over three years without his wife's consent. The Shaykh: Meaning: the wife was coerced?The questioner: Yes, that is correct.
What is required of him?The Shaykh: As for the wife, she owes nothing as long as she was unable to resist, or if she resisted but was unable to prevent it, she owes nothing.
As for him, he owes an expiation for each act. If it was ten times, first he must free ten slaves. If he cannot find them, he must fast two months for each act, and since it was ten times, he is required to fast twenty months. If he is unable to do so, he must feed sixty poor people for each act, meaning: six hundred. However, he is not required to feed the six hundred at once; he may repeat feeding the sixty ten times.
