Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man masturbated and did not know that it is one of the things that break the fast, being ignorant of the ruling, then he completed his fast. Does he have to make up that day, or is it excused due to his ignorance?

Answer:
No, it is not excused. It is obligatory for him to make it up, because he invalidated his fast intentionally by masturbating; he invalidated his fast. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
