Q: I have made a terrible mistake. I had sex with my wife from behind three times. I took an oath from Allah not to do it and still did it knowing it's wrong. I am very ashamed. Please tell me what to do as soon as possible. If I have to do kaffarah and what else for forgiveness.
A: Anal sex is haraam in Islam. You both should sincerely repent to Allah Ta'ala and make istighfaar and taubah in abundance. Make a firm resolve that you both will never repeat this sin in the future. Give a reasonable amount of wealth in charity as compensation for this sin (according to how much you can manage).
You should also discharge the kaffara for breaking the oath. The kaffarah for breaking an oath is that one feeds 10 poor people two meals or gives them the amount of sadaqatul fitr (i.e. each poor person should be given the amount of sadaqatul fitr) or clothes them with such clothing with which one is able to perform Salaah in it. If one is unable to fulfill this, then one should fast for three days consecutively with the intention of atoning for the broken oath. Insha-Allah, Allah Ta'ala will forgive you both.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
