Does pre-seminal fluid invalidate fasting?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 9222 )
Q1: On one of the days of Ramadan, I was sitting next to my wife while we were fasting, for about half an hour, and we were joking. After I moved away from her, I found a wet spot on my pants coming from the penis. This happened a second time. Please inform me: do I owe an expiation?
A1: If the situation is as you described, you owe neither making up the fast nor an expiation, out of consideration for adhering to the original state of purity, unless it is established that the wetness was semen, in which case you must perform the full ritual bath and make up the fast, but no expiation is required. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
