I do not intend to mislead anyone. I am currently fasting and I have sex after I break the fast with some good food.

My view is, submit yourself (body and soul) when fasting. But the moment you break that fast by eating anything, forget! Your flesh has taken something so you can have sex (only the married o tongue). Trust me, when the bible say "flesh" it comprises everything the body does- food, sex etc.

But if you're on marathon for both day and night and you don't break your fast at any time, then it's total abstinence. All you need to do is Agree with your spouse.

The crux of the matter is that you Christians don't have guiding principles of such sensitive situations. Islam will put you through, it's very comprehensive and complete. Islam left no stone unturned.
... The bible is d manual for all human endeavors... EVEN ISLAM RELY ON THE BIBLE... THE BIBLE IS THE STANDARD... NEGLET IT AND GET DESTROYED IN JESUS NAME AMEN

To have said such thing, I think you're sick. The Bible (our guideline) was in existence way long before your prophet was even born dude. If Islam left no stone unturned, why do people kill for the context of the quran? Are "some" of the things they do not well stated in the quran to be guidelines for making heaven? Why didn't islam bring out a better guideline to curb this?

It's very wrong

When you fast,you are denying yourself pleasures,so as to be very closer to God

it's not right to have sex during fasting.


You see, with all these 'right' and 'wrong' I personally filter everything. Even in church, after they say theirs, I yimu, then filter based on several prinicples and just live right.

For couples, they have to agree. One shouldn't take such decision without completely agreeing witht he other. The spouse's body is for both of them. FORGET what they say in some churches.

So pay the price, let it be just for the period, after which you have yourselves always for each other, and please do explain this to your wife and secure her agreement before you say no to her, depriving her of her due benevolence as the Scripture puts it.

I don't know about 40 days or 100 days fasting. but if your fast is in the range of a week or two, please abstain from sexual pleasures. Sex (with or without your wife or husband) weakens the spirit man, just as it weakens the physical body. it depletes the spirit. you suddenly feel like you want to sleep when your spirit should be on fire for prayers and God. There is actually no perfect biblical passage that can tell you for certain what you should or should not do in your marriage especially in the aspect of sex. However, it is the holy spirit who teaches us all things. if you are a true Christian, the holy spirit should be present everyday to define to you what fasting is all about. it is not an exercise of the flesh, it is a spiritual exercise which we use in fellowship with God (who is also a spiritual being). If your spouse doesn't allow you to embark on days long fasting and prayer (which you deem important) make sure to pray for him or her that God should soften his or her mind to allow you excercise your spirit man. God bless you all.....

naijadeyhia:
many of u fail to understand what fasting is all about. fasting does not only focus on food. fasting is to deny ur body what it loves the most. for some people abstinence from food comes naturally to them so fast or no fast they feel nothing. some love business, telvision, intercourse, and so on. Fasting is to choose ur vice and abstain from it.

Now to the question asked, God encourages intercourse in marriage. the more the better. If a couple is to abstain at any time including fasting both of them need to agree on this but when one refuses to agree then the other should give his or her body. Now even if both agree to abstain because of a fast it should be for a short time so as not to give room to temptation. In other words a fast is not greater or holier than a frequent intercourse in marriage because u can still pray while having marital intercourse but fasting while in disagreement over intercourse with ur spouse renders ur fast void.

u said it all. u r a man of understanding.

3.The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband.
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife.
5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satano will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

1 Corinthians 7:3–5

how does this apply
yes I agree. Based on my own understanding during those particular fasting hours e.g 6am to 6pm is when u can stay apart. But b.4 or after those hours u can go ahead N hav sex. Thats my bliv N dats what I practice. This goes a long way in discouraging xtra marital sex especially wen the fasting days are long.

I have read so many comments and suggestions, but I want to make this clear to everyone here "behold I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me" psalm 51. Sex on its own as an act, whether in marriage or not in marriage is already a sin. Then ask yourself, what is fasting? What do I need to do to observe a good fasting with my required result? There's holy matrimony but there's never a holy sex. Fasting (good one o, not the one everybody around you will know that you're fasting) has its communication spiritually and brings its result physically whereas sex has its communication biologically and brings its result physically.
