Answer

1. There is no time restriction for intercourse to take place after Nikah. Shari?ah permits them to have intercourse after Nikah. It is now left upto the spouses to do as they mutually decide and agree.

2. If one is sitting upright without reclining on anything and falls off to sleep, his Wudhu does not break.
