Marriage
-
Male and Female Complement Each Other: The Qur'an talks about how man and woman have been designed to physically and emotionally complement one another:
"They are your garments and you are their garments.” (Qur’an, 2:187)
Regular intercourse, within a marriage, is seen as the right of both man and wife.
Sexual relations, within a marriage, are spiritually rewarding. Charity as satisfying needs of your spouse in a loving way.

Quran
“Nor come near to adultery: for it is a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evils).” (Qur’an, 17:32)
"Bring against them four [witnesses] from among you. And if they testify, confine the guilty women to houses until death takes them or Allah ordains for them [another] way. - Sura 4:15
General
Sexuality is of profound importance in Islamic society and the reason why the religion provides explicit instructions on sexual behaviours and intercourse.
As the primary source of God’s revelation, the Qur’an is the sourcebook of Islamic principles and values. There are about 350 legal verses out of 6235 verses.
The ultimate purpose of the creation of man is to engage in a personal relationship with God through belief, worship and good deeds.
