Being intimate during haidh

· 25 Rabiʻ I 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My wife was in the last day of haidh, then we got close and I used my finger to pleasure her until she felt satisfied. I don't know if blood had stopped completely or there was some drops?

Answer

Make taubah. Until she is not pure i.e. she has not taken the last ghusl after the blood has terminated then to have this type of relationship is impermissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
