Is it permissible to have intercourse with one's wife in a rented house that the husband does not own?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Marital intimacy is permissible in a building or elsewhere, whether the place is owned by the husband or not, provided that the private parts are covered and no one sees or hears them. It is not a condition for the marital home to be owned by the husband; rather, it is sufficient for him to own its usufruct through rent or loan.
