Intercourse on the night and day of Eid

22-11-2002

Question 38224

What is the ruling on having intercourse on the day and night of Eid (my question includes both Eids)? I heard from some sincere brothers that it is not permissible.

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

What you have heard from some sincere brothers is not correct. Intercourse on the night and day of Eid is permissible, and it is not haram to have intercourse except during the day in Ramadan and when in the state of ihraam for Hajj and ‘Umrah, and when the woman is menstruating or bleeding after childbirth (nifaas). 

And Allah knows best.
