Can a woman have relations after her period is over but before she has Ghusal?

Question

My question is "Can a woman have relations after her period is over but before she has ghusal?"

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

1. It is permissible for a man to have conjugal relations with his wife once her menstrual period has terminated before ten days as per her monthly habit and a complete salah time elapses after her bleeding stops, even though she did not take a bath. However it is preferable that she take a bath.

[Nurul Idaah Pg.51 Kutub Khaanah Imdaadiyah Deoband]

2. If a woman bled for ten days and ten nights, then the moment she stops bleeding sexual intercourse with her will be permissible irrespective of her taking a bath or not.         [Bahishti Zewar Pg.92]

And Allah knows best
