Is a man sinful if he has intercourse with his wife and then she menstruates half an hour after intercourse, knowing that there were no signs of menstruation at the time of intercourse?

There is no sin upon you in having intercourse with your wife so long as you are certain of the purity of the place. The onset of menstruation after that does not change the ruling in any way, for the default rule is permissibility.
