He said: 'I turned my mount during the night.'"[2] He said: "So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not say anything in reply to him. Then Allāh revealed this Āyah to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ: 'Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth when or how you
will.'[1] From the front, the back, avoiding the anus, and menstruation." (Hasan)
