Anal sex

Q: Can a man do sexual intercourse with his wife from her back side (i.e anal sex) ? If not, then if a person ever do so then what is its compensation?

A: It is not permissible. He should make istighfaar and taubah in abundance, cry to Allah for forgiveness and give a reasonably good amount of charity according to one’s income. Insha-Allah, Allah will forgive you.
