The Ruling on Masturbation by the Wife’s Hand During the Daytime of Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! A man was overcome by his desire during the daytime of Ramadan, so he masturbated using his wife’s hand. What is the ruling?
The ruling is that this is forbidden for him, unless he is traveling. If he is traveling, it is permissible for him to break his fast by eating, drinking, having intercourse, and other things. But if he is not traveling, it is forbidden for him, because his fast is invalidated by this act.And for him, first: He should repent to Allah the Exalted—and this is the most important thing—and feel shame before Allah and humility in His presence.
Second: He must make up the day he broke his fast. His wife owes nothing, unless she reached orgasm and she enabled him to do this act of her own choice. In that case, she must make up the fast, and this enabling is forbidden for her. So she must repent and make up the fast.
