Living Shariah Verdicts
I
have heard that you are not supposed to have sex on
Tuesdays....and there is something that comes that
night which then curses all those who are doing
it...and they suffer somehow later...then please reply
me and inform me about the correct information from
hadeeths or Quran.
Praise be to Allaah.
I know, may Allaah teach
us and you, that this is one of the myths and
innovations that have no basis on the Qur'aan or
Sunnah. It is like the things said by the people who
follow innovations and are misguided, so they say that
it is makrooh to get married when the moon is
in Scorpio or when it is under the rays (???), or when
it is waning or in any of its other stages. (See
Mu'jam al-Bida' by Raa'id Sabri, 656)
Allaah has permitted
intercourse at all times and in all places, with the
following exceptions:
* During the day in
Ramadaan: Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning),
"It is made lawful for you to have sexual relations
with your wives on the night of as-siyaam (the
fasts). They are libaas (body cover, screen,
etc.) for you and you are the same for them. Allaah
knows that you used to deceive yourselves, so He
turned to you (accepted your repentance) and forgave
you. So now have sexual relations with them and seek
that which Allaah has ordained for you (offspring)…"
(Al-Baqarah: 187)
* During the woman's
period (hayd) and when she is still bleeding
after childbirth [nifaas]: Allaah says
(interpretation of the meaning), "They ask you
concerning menstruation. Say: that is an adha
(a harmful thing for a husband to have a sexual
intercourse with his wife while she is having her
menses), therefore keep away from women during menses
and go not unto them till they are purified (from
menses and have taken a bath). And when they have
purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allaah
has ordained for you…" (Al-Baqarah: 222)
* In the mosques: Allaah
says (interpretation of the meaning), "… And do not
have sexual relations with them (your wives) while you
are in I'tikaaf (i.e. confining oneself in a
mosque for prayers and invocations leaving the worldly
activities) in the mosques. These are the limits (set)
by Allaah, so approach them not…" (Al-Baqarah: 187)
And in other situations,
such as when one is muhrim (in a state of
ihraam for Hajj or ‘Umrah). You will
not find anything in the Qur'aan or Sunnah to confirm
this lie. It is a kind of evil falsehood that has
cheated a lot of people, so now they hold it as some
kind of inflexible belief. Many people have had
intercourse with their wives on a Tuesday and have
conceived healthy children. No harm has befallen
either them or their children because of that. May
Allaah protect us and you from bid'ah and evil!
And Allaah knows best! Praise be to Allaah. The scholars are unanimously agreed that ghusl is required in the event of intercourse. (Al-Mawsoo'ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 3/198) If a man has intercourse with his wife, they must both do ghusl even if there is no ejaculation. This was narrated clearly from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in the report narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him), according to which the Prophet of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "When a man sits between the four parts (arms and legs of his wife) and has intercourse with her, then ghusl is obligatory." Narrated by Al-Bukhaari No. 291, Muslim added (525), "Even if he does not ejaculate." An-Nawawi said in Sharh Muslim: What this hadeeth means is that the obligation of ghusl does not depend on the emission of semen, rather when the tip of the penis disappears into the vagina, then ghusl becomes obligatory for both the man and the woman. There is no dispute concerning this matter today, although there was a difference of opinion among the Sahaabah[2] and those who came after them. Then there arose consensus on what we have mentioned. End quote. Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: It is clear that ghusl is required in this case, even if he does not ejaculate. This is something that is not known to many people, so you may find that this has happened to a couple, but they do not do ghusl, especially if they are young and have not learned much. This is based on their idea that ghusl is only required when ejaculation takes place, but this is wrong. End quote. (Ash-Sharh al-Mumti', 1/223) It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa'imah (5/314), "Among the things that make ghusl obligatory for a Muslim are: the emission of semen whilst sleeping; the disappearing of the tip of the penis into the vagina even if no ejaculation takes place; the emission of semen with pleasure when one is awake, even if no intercourse takes place; and menses and nifaas (postpartum bleeding) in the case of a woman, in which case she must do ghusl when the bleeding stops." End quote. [1] Having a bath. Comments 💬 التعليقات |
