Is it true that Imam Malik said, "Now I have cleansed myself of it," when asked about anal sex with one's wife? And did Al-Shafi'i dispute the impermissibility of that? And was the verse "Your women are a tilth for you..." revealed because Umar had anal sex with his wife? And what is the ruling on anal sex with one's wife when vaginal intercourse is temporarily impossible due to medical reasons?
