Intercourse is forbidden whether the revocable divorce (Raj'iyyah) is considered permissible or forbidden, because intercourse prevents knowledge of whether the divorce has occurred or not.

Abu al-Khattab holds an alternative narration where intercourse is not forbidden because the default is the continuation of the marriage and the womb being free of pregnancy. Intercourse becomes permissible in both narrations after 'istibra', which is one menstrual cycle.
