Having sexual intercourse without ejaculation in the daytime in Ramadan entails Kaffarah

268

Q: I got married when I was about sixteen and now I am eighty years old. I have approached my wife in the daytime in Ramadan while I was fasting. I have had sex her without ejaculation and I do not know how many times I moved in her. I would like to ask you whether I have to make up for such days. May Allah keep you benefiting Muslims. I hope you will answer me in order not be charged with that in the Hereafter.

A: You and your wife, if she did so willingly, are asked for expiation. It is to emancipate a believing slave. If you could not do that, you have to fast two successive months. If this is even impractical for you, each of you have to feed sixty poor persons. (Part No. 9; Page No. 228) In addition to that, you have to make up for the day when you had sexual intercourse and feed a poor person, because you delayed making up for that day until another Ramadan came.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
