What is the correct sexual intercourse position that should be used in Islam?

Answer

Hadhrat Abdullah ibn Abbaas (Radhiallaahu Anhu) narrates that the Aayat, ?Your wives are a tilth (farm) for you, hence, go unto your tillage as you wish?? (Baqarah 222) as revealed to Rasulullah(Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam), hence, go from the front, come from the back, but stay away from the anus and the time of menstrual cycle.? (Mishkaat 276)
