My husband and me are very observant of Islamic limits of intimacy. Recently, my periods date was due but not started. There was no sign before And right after intimacy, there was blood on both our private parts and periods started right there. I am very worried as if we will be sinful?
Answer
If you didn't see the blood before that, there is no sin.
In this scenario, if the blood was not visible or had not started before the intimacy, then there is no sin involved, as per the teachings of Islam. Sheikh Assim Al-Hakeem has clarified that if the menstruation starts unexpectedly after intimacy, and there was no prior sign of bleeding, both husband and wife are not sinful.
Islam sets clear boundaries regarding intimacy during menstruation, but unexpected situations like this are beyond control. Allah is Most Merciful, and as long as the act was done without knowledge of menstruation starting, there is no blame. Always strive to observe Islamic limits, and Allah rewards sincere intentions and efforts to follow His guidance.
