The talmud specifies both the quantity and quality of sex that a man must give his wife. Serious offense: using sex to punish or manipulate. Role of sex in islam: speaks about the importance of foreplay and speaking in loving terms during sexual relations. Husband should engage in acts that enable a woman to achieve orgasm first.
