Masturbation by pressing on the prostate
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 16055 )
Q: I would like to know the religious ruling on intentionally ejaculating by pressing on the prostate (the groin area) which I do on a continuous basis. Does this fall under the ruling on masturbation by hand? I am aware that I am unable to marry due to my financial circumstances first, and my health conditions second.
A: Masturbation is forbidden in any form; because it is taking pleasure in a manner other than what Allah has made lawful, namely a wife or a slave in one's possession. And Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Mu'minun 23:5-7]
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 3080 , so he (peace and blessings be upon him) guided to one of two paths, which are: marriage, or fasting, for the one who is unable to marry, and he did not mention a path other than these two, which indicates the prohibition of masturbation. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.

A: Masturbation is forbidden in any form; because it is taking pleasure in a manner other than what Allah has made lawful, namely a wife or a slave in one's possession. And Allah the Exalted said:
(5) And they who guard their private parts (6) Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed - (7) But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors -
وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَ (5) إِلا عَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ غَيْرُ مَلُومِينَ (6) فَمَنِ ابْتَغَى وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْعَادُونَAnd the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Young man, those of you who can support a wife should marry, for it keeps you from looking at strange women and preserves you from immorality; but those who cannot should devote themselves to fasting, for it is a means of suppressing sexual desire.
يا معشر الشباب: من استطاع منكم الباءة فليتزوج، فإنه أغض للبصر، وأحصن للفرج، ومن لم يستطع فعليه بالصوم، فإنه له وجاء
