“It has been made permissible for you the night preceding fasting to go to your wives [for sexual relations]. They are clothing for you and you are clothing for them. Allah knows that you used to deceive yourselves, so He accepted your repentance and forgave you. So now, have relations with them and seek that which Allah has decreed for you. And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night]. Then complete the fast until the sunset. And do not have relations with them as long as you are staying for worship in the mosques. These are the limits [set by] Allah, so do not approach them. Thus does Allah make clear His verses to the people that they might become righteous.”

This verse in the Quran provides guidance on fasting during Ramadan. It permits sexual relations during the night of fasting and emphasizes abstinence during the fasting hours of the day. It also underscores the importance of observing Allah’s limits and striving for righteousness through fasting.
