It is not permissible to have intercourse with a menstruating wife, even if a condom is used. If the husband forces his wife to do so during menstruation or during the day in , she must report him to someone who can deter him. If he is not deterred, then they must be separated. She is not accountable for what she was forced to do, because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "My Ummah has been forgiven for their mistakes, their forgetfulness, and what they are forced to do."
