Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

It is forbidden to have sexual intercourse with your menstruating wife before she takes Ghusl (i.e. performs a ritual bath at the end of her menses). Therefore, if you had entered your penis in her private parts, then you are sinful even if your sexual organ was not fully inserted. So, you are obliged to seek forgiveness for what you had done but you do not have to pay any expiation. For more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 91380.

Allaah Knows best.
