The Ruling on the Secret Habit
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. He asks: What is the ruling on what is called the secret habit?
Answer:
What is called the secret habit, which is self-stimulation by the hand, is forbidden. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Mu'minun 23:5-6] So Allah has forbidden the enjoyment of desire except with a wife or with a right hand possesses, and anything other than a wife and a right hand possesses is forbidden. Seeking beyond that means other than a wife and a right hand possesses, and those are the transgressors, meaning those who transgress against the prohibitions of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, and those who cross from the lawful to the forbidden. And among that is the secret habit, for it is enjoyment not authorized by the Shari'ah, and it is enjoyment other than with a wife and a right hand possesses. Yes.

وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ
