Hadith.4407 - Al-Hasan bin Mahbub narrated from Abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz, from Amr bin Uthman, from Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), who said: I asked Imam (as): "Is it disliked to have intercourse at certain times?" Imam (as) replied: "Yes, it is disliked during a night when the moon is eclipsed, during the day when the sun is eclipsed, between sunset and the disappearance of twilight, from the rising of dawn until the rising of the sun, during black, red, and yellow winds, and during earthquakes." Imam (as) continued: "The Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family, spent a night with one of his wives, and the moon was eclipsed that night. He (sw) refrained from intimacy. His (sw) wife said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah (swt), may my father and mother be sacrificed for you, is all of this due to dislike?" He (sw) replied: "Woe to you! This celestial event has occurred, and I disliked to take pleasure and engage in something (worldly) at such a time. Indeed, Allah, the Exalted, has reproached a people, saying: 'And if they see a piece of the sky falling, they would say, "A heap of clouds!"' (Surah At-Tur 52:44) By Allah (swt), no one engages in intimacy during these times that I (sw) have described, having heard this explanation, and is granted a child from that intimacy, except that they will see what they dislike."

Hadith.4408 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as), said: "Do not have intercourse at the beginning of the month, in its middle, or at its end. For whoever does so should prepare himself for the possibility of miscarriage. And if the child is born, it is likely to suffer from mental instability. Do you not see that most cases of insanity occur at the beginning, middle, and end of the month?"
