Q 2: A man did not fast during Ramadan for he was (Part No. 10; Page No. 316) traveling with his family from
Al-Ta'if
to
Tabuk,
and his wife was not fasting either.
The man had sexual intercourse with his wife during the daytime of Ramadan.
Is there any expiation on him? Should he just make up for this day? What about the wife, in case she agreed or disagreed to have sexual intercourse with her husband?
A:
If the case is as mentioned, and the intercourse occurred during travel, then neither the man nor his wife should expiate for this, rather they should make up for that day which they did not fast.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
