YOGYAKARTA - At the beginning of March 2025, Muslims will have a month to wait for each year, namely the month of Ramadan. Of course, we all know that in that month we are obliged to fast where, we are ordered to endure thirst, hunger and lust. But for those who are married, do you know the law of having sex with a husband and wife in the month of Ramadan? Yes or not? Let's discuss it!

The reason is, eating or having sex is a case that clearly invalidates fasting. One form of compensation is fasting for two consecutive months. If you are unable to fulfill it, you must feed 60 poor people with three-quarter liter of rice each. So, what is the law like to have sex with your husband and wife in the month of Ramadan?

All scholars from various schools agree that having sex with a husband and wife while fasting will break their fast. If someone deliberately does it, then he is obliged to replace the fast (qadha) and pay for the cadre after the month of Ramadan ends as a form of error relief.

According to Muhammad Jawad Mughniyah's book Fiqih Lima Mazhab, the cadre that must be paid to violators is the release of a slave. If you don't find a slave for a slave, then your obligation turns to fast for two consecutive months.

If a person is unable to fast for two consecutive months, then he must provide food to 60 poor people as a form of replacement for the cadre. This aims to provide opportunities for violators to still be able to make up for their mistakes according to their abilities.

This provision regarding cadres is also stated in a hadith narrated by Imam Bukhari:

You can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't.

"Abu Hurairah narrated that a man came to the Prophet SAW and then said, 'Alas me! I interfered with my wife (for the day) in the month of Ramadan'. He said, 'Merdekakan a servant of a woman'. Answered by the man, 'I can't afford it'. He returned to saying, 'Sative for two consecutive months'. Answered again by the man, 'I can't afford it'. He said again, 'Give food to twenty poor people'." (HR. Bukhari).

Law Of Relationship With Husband And Wife In The Month Of Ramadan After Fasting

The law is still allowed to have husband and wife relationship in the month of Ramadan as long as it is done outside the fasting period, namely at night after breaking the fast until before dawn. Under these conditions, the husband and wife relationship does not invalidate the fast and remains in accordance with sharia rules.

This opinion is based on the word of Allah in the Koran, precisely in the letter Al-Baqarah verse 187, which explains that a husband and wife relationship is allowed at night during the month of Ramadan. This verse forms the basis for Muslims in understanding the time limit allowed to have a husband and wife relationship during the holy month. The verse reads:

You can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't.

"It's lawful for you on the night of fasting mixes with your wife. They are clothes for you, and you are clothes for them. Allah knows that you can't hold back yourself, but He accepts your consent and forgives you. So now mix them and look for what Allah has set for you. Eat and drink until it's clear to you (the difference) between the white thread and the black thread, that's dawn. Then perfect fast until (come) night. But don't mix them, when you get involved in the mosque. That's the provision of Allah, so don't you approach it. That's what Allah explains His verses to humans, so that they have piety." (QS. Al-Baqarah: 187).

Ibnu Katsir in his interpretation explained that this verse is a form of relief from Allah SWT for Muslims. Previously, at the beginning of the Islamic era, husband and wife relations were only allowed after breaking the fast until before the Isha prayer. However, the regulation was later removed and replaced with looser provisions.

Husband And Wife Relationships In The Month Of Ramadan Can Be As Long As...

With this relief, husband and wife relationship in the month of Ramadan is allowed during the night, after breaking the fast until before dawn. This provides flexibility for married couples in fasting without having to restrain themselves throughout the night.

However, there are rules that must be considered before returning to fasting the next day. One of the important conditions is that married couples are required to take a junub bath or take a bath to purify themselves from great hadas.

This mandatory bathing must be done before the Fajr prayer time so that a person can perform fasting in a holy state. Thus, in addition to maintaining physical hygiene, they also still meet the requirements for the validity of worship in Islam.

To increase your refrension, you need to know when it is best to have sex with a husband and wife or a new partner during Ramadan.
