Chapter on the Times When Intercourse is Disliked

وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "يُكْرَهُ أَنْ يَغْشَى اَلرَّجُلُ اَلْمَرْأَةَ وَ قَدِ اِحْتَلَمَ حَتَّى يَغْتَسِلَ مِنِ اِحْتِلاَمِهِ اَلَّذِي رَأَى فَإِنْ فَعَلَ فَخَرَجَ اَلْوَلَدُ مَجْنُوناً فَلاَ يَلُومَنَّ إِلاَّ نَفْسَهُ".
The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "It is disliked for a man to approach his wife after having experienced a nocturnal emission (wet dream) until he has performed ghusl (ritual purification) from that emission. If he does so and the child is born with a mental disorder, he should blame none but himself."
