When on istihaada (when a woman has been spot bleeding for more than 10 days) i understand she has to do wudhu for every salaat – i wish to ask is it permissible for a husband and wife to be intimate together during this time? And what about praying quran? jazakalah
| Answer |
| In the name of Allah the Almighty
The lady who is in the state of ?Istihaada? may carry on with normal intimate conjugal relationships with her husband.
She can recite from the Holy Quran and she can even hold the Quran while reciting as long as she is in the state of Wudhu (ablution).
As a further note it is important to know that she must renew her Wudhu for every Salaah, and with this she can read her Fardh, Sunnah, nafaafill Salaah, etc. In addition to the normal things which invalidate the Wudhu the time of the Salaah finishing will also break the Wudhu.

And Allah the Majestic knows best
