If you continued to have intercourse with your wife after becoming aware of her menstruation and did not immediately withdraw, you have sinned. However, if you promptly withdrew as soon as you became aware of her menstruation, there is no sin upon you. If you have sinned, the majority of scholars hold that you only need to repent, whereas the Hanbalis believe that expiation is obligatory, and this latter opinion is more cautious and more absolving of responsibility.
