Had sexual intercourse with his


332

A: You should expiate for the first and the second day during which you had sexual intercourse, and you should also make up for these two days and feed two needy persons, due to delaying the making up of the two mentioned days, along with offering Tawbah (Repentance) to Allah (Exalted and Glorified be He). The expiation with respect to the opinion of Scholars in this regard is freeing a slave, but if you do not find (the money for freeing a slave), you must fast two successive months, and in case you are unable to do so, you should feed sixty needy people, giving each one half a Sa` (1 Sa`=3 kg. Approx.) of wheat, rice, Tamr (dried dates) or any foodstuff among the staple food existing in your country. The same applies to your wife. We hope that Allah accepts your repentance, as we hope that you should not return to this again.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
