Don’t you see that those who are insane usually have an epileptic attack on the first, the middle and the last nights of the month?” He صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم also said, “Whoever makes love when the moon is in the position of the scorpion will not get a good result. Whoever makes love at the end of the month should expect a miscarriage.”
