Niddah
Question
Hello and blessings, Rabbi Michi,
how does Jewish law allow a couple during niddah to sleep in the same room if there is no guardian against sexual prohibitions?
Thank you very much.
Answer
With one’s wife during niddah, the restrictions are not like the seclusion restrictions that apply to forbidden sexual relations. “His bread is in his basket,” and the time of permissibility will come.
