The Mitzvah of Conjugal Relations on the Night of the Fast

Question

Is it permitted to engage in marital relations on the night of the 17th of Tammuz?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

There is no prohibition according to the law, but a pious person should be stringent with himself. Except on the night of immersion, where one should not be stringent in this matter.
