Summary
A sound hadith narrated by Muslim from Abu Said al-Khudri RA encourages a person to perform ablution before repeating intercourse with his wife, so the act is recommended. Imam al-Nawawi stated that a person in a state of major impurity may sleep, eat, drink and have intercourse before bathing, though it is recommended to perform ablution or wash the private parts first. The better course is to bathe before repeating intercourse, as this is established from the practice of the Prophet SAW.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, sememangnya terdapat anjuran daripada sunnah yang sahih bahawa sunat bagi seseorang yang ingin mengulangi persetubuhan agar berwudhuk kerana ia akan memberi kesegaran kepada seseorang itu.
