The answer

You have committed a great sin by engaging in intercourse during the daytime in . You must offer sincere repentance. You are required to offer expiation for each day you had intercourse (which is the more cautious view), or a single expiation for all days, according to some scholars.

The expiation is to free a believing slave. If that is not possible, then you must fast for two consecutive months. If you are unable to do that, then you must feed sixty needy people. This order of expiation is obligatory according to the majority of scholars. It is permissible to pay the value of the feeding to a trustworthy charitable organization.

For details regarding the ruling concerning your wife, please refer to Fatwas No. 91694 and No. 100963.
