The Ruling on Masturbation by Hand

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Regarding the saying of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He)
But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -فَمَنِ ابْتَغَىٰ وَرَاءَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْعَادُونَ
[Al-Mu'minun 23:7]
, he asks: Does this include masturbation by hand?

Answer:
Yes. The private parts are to be preserved from forbidden enjoyment, and enjoyment is restricted to the wife or to what one owns by right. Whoever seeks beyond that falls under the secret habit, because it is neither with the wife nor with what one owns by right. Yes.
