Whoever has intercourse with his spouse during the daytime in , upon him is an ordered expiation ( murattabah): freeing a believing slave. If he is unable, then fasting two consecutive months. If he is unable, then feeding sixty poor people. This expiation suffices him, and nothing else is required of him thereafter. A Muslim must safeguard his fasting and the sanctity of Ramadan.
