Intercourse after haidh before making ghusal

Question

Once my wife’s periods finished, we had sexual intercourse before she could take ghusal (bath), really we fear azaab (punishment) of Allah Subhanu Wata’aala on this matter. May Allah forgive me for this and guide me to spend my life according to the Sharia.

Answer

If she had bled for ten complete days then this is permissible. However, if she bled for less than ten days and then it is not permissible to share the bed with her before she could have ghusl or one salaah time passes. Make taubah for this and ask Allah Ta`ala to forgive both of you.
