Answer
بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم
الجواب بعون الملک الوھاب اللھم ھدایۃ الحق والصواب
There is no obstacle in a husband and wife having sexual relations during the month of Muharram. There are many incorrect suppositions of this kind amongst the awāmm (lay people) and they are all false. Apart from during the state of fasting, our Islamic Law does not restrict a husband and wife having sexual relations on any day of the year.
