What is the ruling on a wife refusing her husband's intercourse while she is observing a compensatory fast (qada'), and is expiation (kaffarah) due if he has intercourse with her?

A husband is not permitted to invalidate his wife's obligatory fast. You are correct in refusing him during an obligatory makeup fast. If intercourse occurs while you are fasting, your fast is invalidated, and you must make up the day without expiation.
