What is the ruling on a husband having intercourse with his wife in the restroom?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Modern restrooms differ from old latrines, which removes the legal impediment to fulfilling one's desire (sexual intercourse) in them when needed. Fulfilling one's desire is a natural response to quench lust and preserve chastity, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, guided. There is a reward for it if it is done with the intention of preserving chastity and in a permissible manner. It is recommended, upon intercourse, to remember Allah and recite the reported supplication.
