# It’s preferable that a man sleep with his wife in the [[Sukkah]] (not on nights of Onah) to fulfill the requirement of dwelling in the [[Sukkah]] like one would in one’s home, however this doesn’t inhibit the mitzvah. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 639:18 writes that men are obligated to sleep in the [[Sukkah]] without their wives and it’s not called Mitzta’er unless it’s the night of Onah. This is also the opinion of the Chazon Ovadyah (pg 194). Shalmei Moed (pg 114) agrees but adds that if the wife is scared to sleep alone in the house, the man may be lenient.  </ref>

# It’s an obligation to sleep in the [[Sukkah]] even for a married man unless it’s the night of his wife’s Tevilah or Onah and it’s not private enough in the [[Sukkah]]. <Ref> Rama 639:2 writes that many are lenient not to sleep in the [[Sukkah]] since a man can’t sleep with his wife in the [[Sukkah]] unless he has a private [[Sukkah]]. However, the Mishna Brurah 639:18 quotes the Gra and Magan Avraham who argue on this saying that a married man is obligated in [[Sukkah]] even if he can’t sleep with his wife in the [[Sukkah]]. However, the Mishna Brurah concludes that on nights when the women had her Tevilah or it’s the time of Onah, they may sleep outside the [[Sukkah]] so as not to miss the mitzvah of Pru Urevu, assuming that it’s not private enough in the [[Sukkah]]. This is also the opinion of Chazon Ovadyah (pg 194) </ref>
