Is the mention of Allah's name (*Tasmiyah*) recommended before intercourse?

Primary text

The mention of Allah's name is recommended (*mustahabb*) before sexual intercourse, based on the Almighty's saying: 'And send forth [good deeds] for yourselves' (Quran 2:223). Ata stated this mention is the *Tasmiyah* at the time of coitus. Ibn Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: 'If one of you, when approaching his spouse, says: *Bismillahi, Allahumma jannibna al-shaytana wa jannib al-shaytana ma razaqtana* (In the name of Allah, O Allah, keep us away from Satan and keep Satan away from what You have provided for us), and if a child is begotten between them, Satan will never harm that child.' This hadith is agreed upon (Muttafaqun 'alayh).
