نِسَآؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَّكُمْ فَأْتُواْ حَرْثَكُمْ أَنَّى شِئْتُمْ وَقَدِّمُواْ لاًّنفُسِكُمْ وَاتَّقُواْ اللَّهَ وَاعْلَمُواْ أَنَّكُم مُّلَـقُوهُ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will, and send (good deeds, or ask Allah to bestow upon you pious offspring) for your own selves beforehand. And fear Allah, and know that you are to meet Him (in the Hereafter), and give good tidings to the believers.
Holy Qur'aan {2:223}
Treating women with kindness and making sure they do not encounter any kind of physical harm is something that the Ahlulbayt (a.s) positively advocated. Sadly, ignorant and obnoxious individuals have attempted to use this contentious issue for cheap propaganda points calling Shi'a's perverted. But despite this, the so-called, 'Ahl ul Sunnah's' hypocrisy is flagrant, for what they do not tell their followers is that anal sex was something that their much loved icons permitted and some of their own scholars were actually advocates themselves.
Ibn Taymiyyah:
And those people (Awliyah) even though there was friendship and fear of Allah (swt) and His love in their hearts and seeking nearness to Him due to which they became superior to those who could not reach their position. However, they are not better than those of great Salaf who fought in fitnah. And there were among Salaf groups who permitted intoxicant drinks and groups who permitted interest and Mutah and groups who permitted intercourse in the anus, as Abdullah ibn Al-Mubarak says: "A man has been raised in Islam and he has left behind good and righteous legacies and he has errors and mistakes, but we do not follow them in their errors and mistakes."

Al-Qurtubi:
A group held the opinion that having sex in the posterior (of a woman) is permissible. And of those to whom this opinion has been attributed are: Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyib, Nafi, ibn Umar, Muhammad bin Ka'b Al-Quradhi and Abd Al-Malik bin Al-Majishoon...and ibn Al-Arabi mentioned that ibn Sha'ban assigned the permissibility of this to a large group of the Sahaba and Tabi'een, and also to Malik from many narrations.

Badr Al-Din Al-Ayni:
As for the difference of opinion regarding this; then Muhammad bin Ka'b Al-Qaradhi, Sa'eed bin Yasaar Al-Madani and Malik have said that it is permissible. And they prove that by what Aboo Sa'eed has narrated: That a man had sex with his wife in her posterior and then the people rebuked him for that. They said: "Her behind?" So Allah (awj) revealed: "Your women are your tilth, so approach your tilth as you wish." {2.223}. And they said: "{As you wish} means both the front part and the posterior." Ayadh said: "Those who permit it base it on the apparent meaning of the verse." Ibn Al-Arabi said in his book 'Ahkaam Al-Qur'aan': "A large group permited it, and ibn Sha'ban gathered that in his book 'Jima Al-Niswan' and he assigned the permissibility of this to a large group of the Sahaba and the Tabi'een, and to Malik from many narrations." Aboo Bakr Al-Jisaas said in his book 'Ahkaam Al-Qur'aan': "The most popular verdict from Malik is that he permits it, and his companions reject this verdict due to its ugliness and shamefulness, but his verdict is well known so it can not be denied by them." Muhammad bin Sa'd narrated from Abi Sulayman Al-Juzjani, who said: I asked Malik bin Anas about sex with women in their posterior, so Malik struck his head and said: "(I just did this act) and have just washed my head." And ibn Al-Qasim narrated from him: "I have not met anyone I deem a rolemodel in religion that doubts it permissibility," and then he recited the verse {2.223}. As for the stance of Al-Shafi'i, then it is what Al-Tahawi said: Muhammad bin Abdallah bin Abd Al-Hakam told us that he heard Al-Shafi'i say: "There is no authentic narration from the Prophet (pbuh) that permits it or prohibits it, therefore according to conjecture [Qiyas] it is permissible." Al-Hakim said: "Perhaps Al-Shafi'i held this opinion in his early days, but later he explicitly prohibited it."

The scholars disagreed about having sex with in a woman in her posterior. A large group permitted it, and ibn Shi'ban gathered that in the book "Jima Al-Niswan wa Ahkam Al-Qur'aan" and he assigned the permissibility of this to a large group of the companions and Tabi'een, and also to Malik from many narrations.

Narrator Of Hadeeth Partaking In Anal Sex
Al-Mizzi:
Muhammad ibn Sa'ad said: Muhammad ibn Umar said: I heard Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Ajlan saying: My father died in 148 or 149 A.H on the Caliphate of Aboo Ja'far Al-Mansour. He was truthful and narrated many Hadeeths. Aboo Sa'eed ibn Younis said: He came to Egypt and went to Alexandria and married one of its women. He had anal sex with her, so she told her family about what he did, thus the people of Alexandria argued with him about that and made a chaos. So he decided to leave. He died in 148 A.H.

Ibn Umar's Acquiescence For Anal Sex
From Nafi, who said: I recited the verse {your women are your tilth} one day, so ibn Umar said: "Do you know regarding what this verse was revealed?" I said: "No." He said: "It was revealed about having intercourse in the posterior of women." And Al-Bukhari narrated from ibn Umar, that he said: "{So approach your women as you wish}, meaning in the posterior." And this was narrated from ibn Umar through many routes. And in the narration of Al-Darqutni that Nafi said to ibn Umar: "From behind in her front part?" Ibn Umar said: "No, just in her posterior." And ibn Rahawayh, Aboo Ya'la and ibn Jarir Al-Tahawi, and ibn Mardawayh narrated with all good chain of narrators from Aboo Sa'eed Al-Khudri, that a man had sex with his wife in her posterior. So the people rebuked him for that, so then the verse was revealed. And Al-Bayhaqi narrated in his 'Sunan' from Muhammad bin Ali, who said: I was with Muhammad bin Ka'b Al-Qaradhi, when a man came to him and said: "What do you say about having sex with women in their posterior?" So he said: "This is a Shaykh of Quraysh, so ask him." And he referred to Abdallah bin Ali bin As-Sa'ib. He said: "Nasty, even if it is permissible." The verdict of that being permissible has been narrated from Mohammad bin Al-Munkadir, according to ibn Jarir. And from ibn Abi Mulayka according to ibn Jarir also. And from Malik bin Anas according to ibn Jarir, Al-Khateeb and others. And from Al-Shafi'i according to Al-Tahawi, Al-Hakim and Al-Khateeb.

Ibn Abbas narrated that Umar went to Allah's messenger (saw) and said: "O Allah's messenger (saw), I am destroyed!" Allah's messenger (saw) asked: "What thing has destroyed you?" Umar replied: "Last night I changed the direction." Allah's messenger (saw) did not give any reply to Umar, then Allah (swt) sent down this revelation i.e. {2:223}. 'Changing the direction' is a figurative sentence, it has been said that it means that he had performed intercourse in an unusual place.

Distortion Of Ibn Umar's Words
Al-Bukhari:
Narrated Nafi: Whenever ibn Umar recited the Holy Qur'aan, he would not speak to anyone till he had finished his recitation. Once I held the Holy Qur'aan and he recited Surah Al-Baqarah from his memory and then stopped at a certain Verse and said, "Do you know in what connection this Verse was revealed?" I replied, "No." He said, "It was revealed in such-and-such connection." Ibn Umar then resumed his recitation. Nafi added regarding the Verse:–"So go to your tilth when or how you will." Ibn Umar said, "It means one should approach his wife in..."

And the issue is well-known. Muhammad bin Sahnoon wrote a part about it, and Muhammad bin Shi'baan wrote a book and explained that the Hadeeth of ibn Umar is about having sexual intercourse in the posterior of a woman.

Mahmood Al-Alusi:
And the saying that this Ayah (verse) is a proof of allowing anal sex, is actually established through insensible interpretation to the word 'Anna' because the actual meaning of this word tells that a man can have a sexual intercourse (from) wherever he wants, and not (in) wherever he wants, so the beneficial meaning of it maybe referring to generalising the directions of having the intercourse, like from front or behind, up or down, left or right and not generalizing the places of having the intercourse. Thus, there is not any proof in this Ayah that supports those who allowed anal sex like ibn Umar. The traditions of allowing anal sex narrated from him are authentic and famous.

As evidenced, the stance of the so-called 'Ahl ul Sunnah' proves to be more favourable towards this act than that of the Shi'a. It is a shame that they turn a blind eye to the numerous hadeeth and Fatwa's given by their major scholars and still have the audacity to attack the Shi'a and the Ulama when more importantly, a well known companion, Abdullah the son of Umar ibn Al-Khattab partook in such activities. In essence, the so-called 'Ahl ul Sunnah' really need to look closer to home before pointing fingers and spouting out nonsense about others.
