A Man had sex with his Wife in the Daytime during Ramadhan
Question :
What is the ruling on whoever fell into something forbidden during the month of Ramadhan if he was fasting, and what if it was during the night, and what is its expiation?
Answer:
Whoever has sex with his wife during Ramadhan, if it was during the night between sunset and the entrance of Fajr time, there is no harm in that. If he had sex with her in the daytime between the entrance of Fajr time and sunset, while he was fasting and responsible for his action, then he is a sinner who is disobedient to Allâh and His Messenger. He must make up for the day and expiate the sin. The expiation is to free a slave. If he cannot find a slave, then he must fast two months consecutively. If he is not able to do so, he must feed 60 poor people, giving each poor person half a Sa' of food of the land, from what is considered customary among his people that they feed others with in their land.
