Question: I just had my nikkah done with my husband and we are having our rukhsati done soon (in the next few months). The reason for the delay is just mainly to prepare for the wedding and accommodate family members’ schedules the wedding. After the nikkah is it permissible to do all the acts that are permissible between a husband and wife even if the rukhsati hasn’t been done? Sincerely, Getting married in my 20s
