Having menstruation every month is no excuse for not observing expiatory Sawm

Q 1: I broke my Swam (Fast) in a day in Ramadan when my husband had sexual intercourse with me with my approval. I made up for this day. Please give me a Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim scholar), because I am confused. I cannot observe Sawm two successive months and my health is not so good. Moreover, I have menstruation every month. Please answer me. May Allah reward you with the best.

A: Having sexual intercourse during the daytime in Ramadan invalidates Sawm and requires the expiation in addition to making up for that day. The expiation incumbent upon each of you is to emancipate a Muslim slave. If you cannot do this, then you should fast two consecutive months. If you cannot do that, you should feed sixty poor people. You are obliged to repent to Allah (Exalted be He) for this sin. If you cannot fast, you should feed sixty poor people, and every poor person should receive half a Sa` (1 Sa`=3 kg. approx.) of the staple food of the country, such as dates, wheat, rice, etc. (Part No. 9; Page No. 248) Having menstruation every month is no excuse for not observing expiatory Sawm and it does not interrupt the obligatory successiveness of Sawm. Thus, you can complete the missed days from the third month and keep them consecutive and continuous with it.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
