Is it makrooh to have intercourse facing the direction of the qiblah?

Question: 8866

Is it makrooh to have intercourse facing the direction of the qiblah either out of doors or indoors? Are there any differences of opinion among the scholars concerning this matter?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah.

That is not makrooh, either out of doors or indoors. This is the view of al-Shaafa'i and all the scholars, except for some of the companions of Maalik. And Allaah knows best.
