Is a man permitted to have intercourse with his wife after breaking the fast in Ramadan?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no harm for a man to have intercourse with his wife during the nights of Ramadan, from sunset until dawn, due to the Almighty's saying: "It has been made lawful for you the night of the fast to approach your wives. They are clothing for you, and you are clothing for them." What is prohibited is intercourse during the daytime in Ramadan.
