This article is an excerpt from our Sefer
On a night that the wife has immersed in Mikveh, prior to engaging in any intimacy, the husband is obligated to verify from his wife upon her return home that she immersed in the Mikveh. This applies also on the wedding night. He can ask her in a hinting way, and explain to her that it is simply a Halachic obligation and he of course trusts her to have done so.
- Torah Learning:[3]
It is proper for the couple to study Torah prior to the intimacy.[4] This especially applies on the night of Mikveh.[5] It is thus proper to begin intimacy right after a session of Torah learning.[6]
Studying the laws of intimacy:[7] It is proper for a couple to study chapter 240 in Shulchan Aruch prior to intimacy, and Miseches Niddah 30b-31b.
Learning Chapter 16-17 in Reishis Chochmah:[8] It is proper for a couple to study chapters 16-17 in Reishis Chochmah Sha’ar Hakedusha prior to intimacy.
Zohar:[9] It is proper for a couple to study Zoharic passages dealing with intimacy prior to intercourse, and through doing so they will merit having healthy children.
- Kerias Shema She’al Hamita – Mizmor Ledavid & Lachash:[10]
Prior to marital relations, the husband and wife are to say Kerias Shema She’al Hamita until the blessing of Hamapil, which is recited after the intercourse.[11] Prior to intercourse, the following prayers are added to the regular Kerias Shema She’al Hamita.
Mizmor Ledavid:[12] [Both the husband and wife[13]] are to say the Psalm of Mizmor Ledavid Hashem Ro’iy [Tehilim 23] prior to marital relations. Doing so is a Segula for having children. [It also banishes any evil Kelipos and draws down a holy soul to the child.[14] Seemingly, there is no need to say it if one’s wife can no longer conceive,[15] however, practically, it is said in all cases in order to banish the evil Kelipos.[16]]
Lachash of Atifa Bekitfa:[17] [Both the husband[18] and the wife[19] are to] say the Lachash of Atifa Bekitfa [printed in the Siddur before Hamapil, prior[20] to marital relations]. [From the Zohar, it is implied that this Lachash is only needed to be said when having intercourse which can lead to pregnancy, otherwise, it is not necessary.[21] However, from other sources it is implied that it is always to be said.[22] The purpose of this Lachash is to banish the Sitra Achra [i.e. Lilis] from nurturing from their Mitzvah and to prevent them from creating evil spirits from the seed which can harm the fetus.[23] The Lachash is most effective when the couple takes care to sanctify their thoughts and cover their entire body and head during the intercourse. The meaning of the Lachash is as follows: Atifa Bekitfa Izdamnus-Lilis who comes wraps herself in a sheet is ready to come into our marital bed. Shari Shari-We will open her knots and remove her covering. Lo Soil-She may not enter into the sheet. Velo Tinpok-And she will not remove the seeds of semen to the Sitra Achra. Lo Didach-The drops belong to Kedusha and not to Lilis. Velo Be’adbach-They are not yours for even a moment. Suv Suv-Return back to your place. Yama Argishas-The upper seas which is Malchus is upset with her. Gilguliy Lach Keran-Its waves are calling you to smash your head. Bechulka Kadisha Achidna-I am holding onto the holy part of Zun. Bekedusha Demalka Isatafna-I garb myself in holiness. Velachfei Lei Lireishei Ulisisei Ad Sha’asa Chada-That he and her should cover their heads during the intercourse]
Lamnatzei’ach:[24] When a woman is pregnant the husband and wife are to both say the Psalm of Lamnatzei’ach Ya’ancha [printed between Ashreiy and Uva Letziyon] prior to sleep. He is then to repeat the verse of Ya’ancha.
- The blessing of Hamapil:[25]
The blessing of Hamapil is recited after the intercourse. [It may only be recited after one has cleaned himself from semen, and washed his hands. Some write that one is to repeat the first paragraph of Shema prior to saying Hamapil.[26] One is not to abstain from saying it even though he is a Ba’al Keri.[27] If one accidentally said Hamapil before Tashmish, he nevertheless fulfills his obligation and does not need to repeat it afterwards.[28]]
Praying for righteous and healthy children:[29] The husband and wife are to pray to G-d prior to the intimacy that they merit to have children who are successful Torah learners, have holy souls, are wealthy and healthy and righteous in all their ways. This prayer should be done prior to intimacy even during the months of pregnancy and certainly prior to her becoming pregnant.[30] Even if the wife cannot become pregnant, one is still to pray that the soul created in heaven as a result should be holy, and given to a righteous child.[31]
Zechus Avos:[32] The couple is to mention prior to intimacy their holy forebears, and the Shevatim, and that their children should be similar to Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov, and carry the traits of Tzadikim. Specifically, they should mention Adam and Chavah, Shes, Chanoch, Mesushelach, Noach, Avraham with Sarah, Yitzchak with Rivkah, Yaakov with Rachel and Leah, Bila’ah and Zilpah. Reuvein, Shimon, Levi, Yehuda, Yissachar, Zevulun, Dan, Naftali, Gad, Asher, Yosef, Binyamin, Efraim, Menashe. They should Daven that the child should have a soul from its tribe drawn into it. If they are from the tribe of Levi then it is proper to recite the verses of Parshas Va’eira which speak of the descendants of that Shevet [Shemos 6:16-25].
One’s Shevet:[33] One should Daven that the child receives a soul from one’s tribe.
Tefilas Haramban:[34] It is proper for one to recite [three times[35]] the special prayer of the Ramban prior to intimacy. [It is to be said by both the husband and the wife with great arousal of heart, especially on the night of Tevila.[36] It is proper to give charity before saying this prayer.[37]]
L’sheim Yichud:[38] It is proper for one to recite the prayer of L’sheim Yichud prior to intimacy, which emphasizes that one is doing the act for the sake of Heaven, to fulfill the Mitzvah of Onah and the Mitzvah of Peru Urevu [if he has yet to do so, and she is able to become pregnant].
Tefilas HaRamban
- Teshuvah:[39]
It is proper for the husband and wife to do Teshuvah on sins, prior to intercourse, in order so they merit to have pure and holy children. It should be done during the recital of Kerias Shema She’al Hamita. This especially applies during the night of Mikveh.
- Giving charity:[40]
It is proper [for the husband and wife] to give charity prior to intimacy.[41] This is done in order to help banish the Sitra Achra.[42] Doing so is a Segula for having wealthy and wise children.[43] It is also a Segula for having male children.[44]
How much to give: One is to give the worth of at least three Perutos.[45] At the very least one is to give one Peruta’s worth.[46] [The value of a Peruta fluctuates based on the price of silver, although on average has been the worth of about 2 cents or 6 Agurot.]
What to do with the money:[47] The money may be placed in a charity box at night[48] and then be distributed to paupers the next day.
Shabbos and Yom Tov:[49] On Shabbos and Yom Tov, prior to the intimacy, one is to verbally pledge to give the charity after Shabbos or Yom Tov [and is to do so promptly when it exits[50]].
- Using the bathroom:[51]
Prior to intercourse, the husband and wife should check to make sure that they do not need the bathroom, and are to relieve themselves if they do. [This is both due to health reasons and spiritual reasons.[52] One who is not careful in the above, and has intercourse while withholding his urine or bowels, can have children who wet their bed.[53]]
- Washing hands:[54]
[The husband and wife[55]] are to wash their hands properly prior to intimacy [even if they did not sleep beforehand[56]]. [This is similar to the washing of the hands prior to Shemoneh Esrei as a form of purity and sanctification.[57] One must be very careful in this matter.[58] This washing distances the spirit of Lilis from the marital bedroom, and distances bickering and fighting amongst the couple, thus bringing peace and Shalom Bayis into the home.]
How to wash the hands: The hands are to be washed three times inconsecutively, as they are washed in the morning upon awakening.[59]
When to wash the hands:[60] The washing may take place prior to the start of intimacy, and it does not need to be delayed until the actual intercourse.
Preparing a basin of water: Prior to intercourse, one is to prepare a basin of water near the bed for the purpose of the washing prior to and post the intercourse.[61] Nonetheless, if necessary, one may simply wash directly from the nearest sink.
As stated above, in chapter 6 Halacha 15, the wife is encouraged to put on attractive clothing/lingerie, and wear makeup and perfume for the sake of attracting her husband. This should especially be done prior to a scheduled time for intimacy, and is an act of holiness and purity, as explained there. Nonetheless, certain Tzenius restrictions may apply, as explained there. The wife is also encouraged to take a shower to cleanse her body prior to the intimacy, and to brush her teeth or use mouthwash to remove any bad breath.
A husband is encouraged to shower his body and make himself clean for the intimacy. He should likewise brush his teeth or use mouthwash to dispel any bad odors. If necessary, or if desired by the wife, he may use men’s Cologne to make himself smell good and draw his wife’s attention.[62] In general, the husband should be mindful of his wife’s desires and try to understand things that he can do to dismiss any distractions from their intimacy.
Cleaning and tidying the room:[63] It is proper that the marital bedroom be tidy and neat without things spread all over, or containing dirt or bad odors. Doing so assists in drawing down a beautiful child. [It likewise prevents the Sitra Achra from dwelling in the room.[64]]
Creating a romantic setting in the room: Creating a romantic setting in the room can help stimulate positive feelings and raise the quality of the intimacy. While lighting candles is not generally advised due to it being a safety hazard, one may certainly dim the lights in the room, prepare the beds and tidy the area in preparation for the intimacy. Putting on slow and moving music and Niggunim [without vocals[65]] can also help elevate the mood and arouse emotion and passion.
Removing Sefarim: Prior to the start of intimacy, any Sefarim or Tashmishei Kedusha must be removed or doubly covered, as explained in chapter 6 Halacha 13.
Remove pictures: All pictures of people are to be removed from the marital bedroom prior to intimacy, including pictures of Tzadikim. However, pictures of the couple may remain in the room. See Chapter 6 Halacha 22!
Setting up the beds: Preferably, the beds in the marital bedroom are to be aligned from north to south as explained in Appendix 6 Halacha 1 – see there!
Cleaning under the beds:[66] It is proper that the floor under the beds be cleaned prior to intimacy, and that there be no repulsive items under the beds.
Metal under beds:[67] Some write that one is to remove any metal from under the bed, as it can damage the potential child.

[11] Implication of Admur in Siddur who places the additions for Tashmish after Kerias Shema She’al Hamita, prior to Hamapil; Sh’lah Hakadosh Sha’ar Ha’osyos Erech Kedusha 428 that before Tashmish one says the entire Seder of Kerias Shema She’al Hamita until Hamapil, and after Tashmish, Hamapil is said; [I have not found this approach explicitly in any other Poskim other than the Sh’lah ibid, as seen below, as the Poskim either write to say the entire Shema with Hamapil before the Tashmish, or after the Tashmish. Seemingly, however, the logic behind this approach is in order to say Kerias Shema with purity, but delay the blessing of Hamapil due to Hefsek, as writes the Sh’lah ibid.
The following Poskim write to say Kerias Shema She’al Hamita [including Hamapil] prior to intercourse: Siddur Ya’avetz Seder Shechiva in order so it include the intimacy in the blessing, and so it be said in purity; Likkutei Chaver Ben Chaim; Yifei Laleiv 239:4; Toras Chaim Sofer 239:3; Kuntrus Alei Terufa; Piskeiy Teshuvos 239 footnote 44; Kaf Hachaim 240:4 that certainly the Arizal read Kerias Shema She’al Hamita also prior to midnight and the Tashmish, and hence he read it twice, before and after.
The following Poskim write to say the entire Kerias Shema after Tashmish: M”A 239:4 in name of Sh’lah; Arizal, brought in Sha’ar Hamitzvos Bereishis and Siddur Arizal Kol Yaakov p. 112 [However, see Kaf Hachaim 240:4 that certainly the Arizal read Kerias Shema Sheal Hamita also prior to midnight and the Tashmish, and hence he read it twice, before and after]; Elya Raba 239:5; Kitzur SHU”A 71:4; Aruch Hashulchan 239:6; M”B 239:5; Kaf Hachaim 239:10; 240:4 that so was also the custom of the Arizal; Lehoros Nasan 4:20; Piskeiy Teshuvos 239:6 footnote 44; See Sha’ar Hamitzvos Parshas Bereishis that Arizal said Shema also after intercourse.

Other opinions: Some write that it is better not to say the Lachash at all in order not to start up with the Sitra Achra, as we do not have the power today to banish it. [Igeres HaRamaz 12, brought in Nitzutzei Oros of Chida on Zohar ibid]
[18] Zohar ibid writes his instruction in regard to the man.
[19] Implication of Sh’lah ibid; See Sheyikadesh Atzmo 38:3 footnote 4 that according to the Zohar and Admur it is implied that only the husband needs to say it.
[20] Peri Eitz Chaim ibid; Siddur Sh’lah; Siddur Arizal; Rav Raskin on Siddur; See Sheyikadesh Atzmo ibid
[21] Zohar ibid explicitly states that it is to be said when having intercourse during the times of possible conception, in order to prevent Lilis from damaging the child.
[22] Possible understanding of Admur in Siddur, and of Peri Eitz Chaim and other sources ibid; See Sheyikadesh Atzmo 38:3 footnote 3 in length
[23] See Zohar 3 Vayikra 19; Otzer Midrashim Alfa Beisa Deben Sira p. 47; Peri Eitz Chaim Sha’ar Kerias Shema She’al Hamita 11 that Lilis tries to nurture from the Zivug of a couple if it is done animalistically and she then takes the drops of semen and uses it to create evil spirits.
[24] See Yesod Veshoresh Havoda; Likkutei Mharich 3; Igros Kodesh Vol. 4:454; 492; 5:105/220
[25] Implication of Admur in Siddur who places the additions for Tashmish after Kerias Shema She’al Hamita, prior to Hamapil; Sh’lah Hakadosh Sha’ar Ha’osyos Erech Kedusha 428; So rule regarding the entire Kerias Shema that it is only to be said after Tashmish; M”A 239:4 in name of Sh’lah; Elya Raba 239:5; Kitzur SHU”A 71:4; Aruch Hashulchan 239:6; M”B 239:5; Kaf Hachaim 239:10; 240:4 that so was also the custom of the Arizal; Lehoros Nasan 4:20; Piskeiy Teshuvos 239:6 footnote 44; See Sha’ar Hamitzvos Parshas Bereishis that Arizal said Shema also after intercourse.
Other opinions: Some Poskim rule that it is better to recite Hamapil before intercourse, in order so it include the intimacy in the blessing, and so it be said in purity. [Siddur Ya’avetz Seder Shechiva; Likkutei Chaver Ben Chaim; Yifei Laleiv 239:4; Toras Chaim Sofer 239:3; Kuntrus Alei Terufa; Piskeiy Teshuvos 239 footnote 44]
[26] Sh’lah ibid; Poskim in previous footnote; See Sha’ar Hamitzvos Parshas Bereishis that Arizal said Shema after intercourse; See Kaf Hachaim 240:4 that certainly the Arizal read Kerias Shema She’al Hamita also prior to midnight and the Tashmish, and hence he read it twice, before and after.
[27] All Poskim ibid; See Lehoros Nasan 4:20 and Piskeiy Teshuvos ibid
[28] See K’neses Hagedola 239 and Elya Raba 239:3, that Hamapil is said “Al Minhag Ha’olam”, brought in Machatzis Hashekel 239:3 and P”M 239 A”A 3; Chayeh Adam 35:4; Makor Chaim of Chavos Yair Kitzur Halachos [permits saying Maariv after Hamapil]; Siddur Ya’avetz permits talking in a time of great need; Biur Hagr”a 432 [that even if one does not fall asleep, it is not a blessing in vain]; Ashel Avraham Butchach Tinyana 239; Maharitz Chayos Brachos 11b; Bireich Es Avraham p. 102 that so is the custom; Yifei Laleiv 239:2; Tehilas Chaim 2:41 in name of Kuntrus Alei Terufa; Orchos Chaim Spinka 239:3 in name of Meorei Or [permits even initially to talk]; Aruch Hashulchan 239:6 “Certainly it is not similar to the laws of Hefsek after other blessings”; Birchas Habayis 31:2; Peri Hasadeh 1:93; Hisorerus Teshuvah 1:114; Kaf Hachaim 239:7; Halichos Shlomo 13:15; Beir Moshe 1:63; Tzitz Eliezer 7:27; Yechaveh Da’as 4:21; Rivivos Efraim 6:123; 8:81; Piskeiy Teshuvos 239:3
The reason: As the blessing of Hamapil was instituted to be said on the general benefit of sleep received by people, and not on one’s personal sleep. It is no different than speaking after the blessing of Hanosen Lasechvi Bina, prior to hearing the roosters crow. [K’neses Hagedola ibid; Elya Raba 239:3; Machatzis Hashekel 239:3; P”M 239 A”A 3; Chayeh Adam 35:4; Maharitz Chayos ibid; Orchois Chaim Spinka; Bireich Es Avraham p. 102 that so is the custom; Yifei Laleiv 239:2; Kaf Hachaim ibid] Alternatively, it is because the blessing was established to be recited upon one preparing himself to sleep.
