Can husband and wife be nude during sex in Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I have heard that being completely naked during sex is prohibited in Islam. Does that mean the husband and wife must have some clothes on or they can be fully naked but they have to cover themselves with a sheet. Please make it clear in detail.

Answer

(Fatwa: 168/168/M=1433)

It is against taqwa and undesirable to go completely naked while having intercourse. The better option is to take off the clothes only as much as needed, though it is not unlawful and haram to have intercourse while one is completely unclothed, but it is against modesty. If sometime the body is unclothed it should be covered with chuddar etc.
