In the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): “None of you should hold his penis with his right hand,” is the prohibition for the sake of prohibition (haram) or for the sake of dislike (makruh)?

Question : In Makkah, in the two Sahihs, in the hadith of Abu Qatadah, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So, is the prohibition here for the sake of prohibition or for the sake of dislike? And if it is for the sake of dislike, what is the answer to the scholars’ statement that a prohibition implies prohibition (haram)?

Answer : Yes. This prohibition is for the sake of dislike, because the intent is out of fear that the right hand may be advanced for harm or that it may become soiled with filth. This is the position of the majority. This is what is stated: it is not from the end of prohibition. How many prohibitions are there for the sake of dislike in the consensus of the scholars, some of them, or some of them have disagreement? It is not a confused rule.
