What is the ruling on a man having intercourse with his wife in her vagina from the back, and is it permissible?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no harm in approaching one's wife in any manner or position, as long as it is in the place of cultivation (the front passage), for Allah Almighty says: "Your wives are a place of cultivation for you, so come to your cultivation however you wish." What is forbidden is approaching a woman in the anus.
