The days of menstruation that were not compensated for are a debt that must be repaid, along with an expiatory meal for a needy person for each day repayment was delayed without a valid excuse, unless she was ignorant of the ruling. The marriage of an adulteress is not valid until she repents, and it is not permissible to consume money earned from adultery. However, if her money is mixed (with lawful earnings), it is permissible to consume it, though disliked. It is obligatory to advise her to repent.
