Question

If my husband drinks alcohol and then becomes intimate, do I become impure or my mouth becomes impure due to saliva touching me after consuming alcohol? Please help.

Answer

If there are no traces of alcohol in his mouth, you will not become impure.

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