Hadith.4415 - Safwan ibn Yahya asked Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as), about a man who has a young wife and refrains from approaching her for months or even a year, not intending to harm her but due to some hardship or difficulty they are facing. Is he considered sinful for this?
The Imam (as) replied: "If he refrains from her for four months, he is sinful after that unless it is with her consent."
