However, it is never permissible under any circumstance for a man to have intercourse with his wife through the anal passage, as this is strictly forbidden.
This is based on the statement of Allah the Exalted:
«نِسَاؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَكُمْ فَأْتُوا حَرْثَكُمْ أَنَّىٰ شِئْتُمْ وَقَدِّمُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّكُمْ مُلَاقُوهُ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ» [2-البقرة:223]
"Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish, and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. And fear Allah and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers." [Al-Baqarah: 223]
Additionally, the Prophet ﷺ said:
«ملعون من أتي امرأته فى دبرها» [حسن۔ سنن أبى داود، رقم الحديث 2162]
"Accursed is the one who has intercourse with his wife in her anal passage."
—Authentic (Hasan), Sunan Abi Dawood, Hadith 2162
و بالله التوفيق
(And success is from Allah)
