Is anal sex considered sinful in Islam, and would it displease Allah, even if the wife does not express any discomfort?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

The common view among our esteeemed scholars is that such an act is highly detestable (very makruh) and should not be performed. Some consider it haram, and some precautionary haram. It is indeed something that believers should refrain from, and expressing discomfort is irrelevant as well. 

You must refer to your Marja' taqleed for his specific view. 

And Allah knows best.
Does Iblis have a spouse? What is the method of reproduction for Iblis and the Jinn from his tribe?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

In Quran we read in Sura Al-Kahn, verse 50: Do you take Shaitan and his offspring’s friends rather than Me? This means that Iblus has offspring. Iblis is from the Jinn who have males and females among them. There are narrations in Sunni and Shia books about Shaitan’s homo way of reproduction but we can not confirm the degree of the authenticity of those narrations.

If a couple has not engaged in vaginal intercourse, only oral sex, does the husband need to wait until the wife's next menstrual cycle concludes before proceeding with a divorce?

Vaginal or anal intercourse is an intercourse which has the rules of Iddah and other rules in Talaq. If there was no intercourse at all neither vaginal nor anal, then is no rules of intercourse and husband then can go ahead with divorce with all other conditions and he does not need to wait until his wife;s menstrual cycle concludes.
