Masturbate In Ramadan and FAQs
Masturbate In Ramadan. Masturbation is a sin in any period. So when you do Masturbate in Ramzan it’s a bigger sin now. Allah has guided you to protect your private parts. Allah has make nikah halal. It is recommended in hadiths that marriage should be done early so that you are not involved in illegal things. So if you are married earlier then you would not ask this question. This is the way of Islam. If you are not marrying then this question arises. So the answer is you should get married instead of doing masturbation. But if you are not doing illegal sex without marrying and keeping yourself away from bad habits, and you do masturbate and keep it to yourself, then although it is not allowed it is better to go for a little sin than go for a grave sin.
Masturbating In Ramadan
Praise be to Allah.
Masturbation (for both men and women) is haram (forbidden) in Islam based on the following evidence:
Firstly: From the Quran:
Al-Imam Shafi’i stated that masturbation is forbidden based on the following verses from the Quran (interpretation of the meaning):
And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts). Except for their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, – for them, they are free from blame. But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors.
(23:5-7)
Here the verses are clear in forbidding all illegal sexual acts (including masturbation) except for the wives or that their right hand possesses. {And whoever seeks beyond that is the transgressor.}
And let those who find not the financial means for marriage keep themselves chaste until Allah enriches them of His bounty. (24:33)
This verse also clearly orders whoever does not have the financial means to marry to keep himself chaste and be patient in facing temptations (including masturbation) until Allah enriches them of His bounty.
Can You Masturbate In Ramadan?
Watching porn or blue film is Haram in Islam. Allah forbade this act. There are means by which pornography has been propagated especially on the internet, in magazines, or live on television.
A Muslim should detach him/herself from this habit, and also be mindful of what type of movies they watch. Most Western movies contain lust, pornographic scenes, and sexual activities that are against the teachings of Islam.
Pornography is a devilish act that damages someone’s spirituality with Allah. Due to the easy accessibility of these materials, it has made it easy for Muslims to fall victim to this act.
Some health practitioners may claim that watching pornography boosts one’s happiness and relieves stress. Recent studies have revealed that watching pornography can reduce your productivity towards your daily life activities.
Allah warned Muslims to be mindful of what they look out for and should lower their gaze and abide by this will be a benefit to them.
“Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And Allah is well acquainted with all they do.” – Quran 24:30
If you indulge in these acts, ask for Allah’s forgiveness surely Allah’s is oft-forgiving.
“And those who, having done something to be ashamed of, or wronged their own souls, earnestly bring Allah to mind, and ask for forgiveness for their sins,- and who can forgive sins except Allah? – and are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in (the wrong) they have done.” – Quran 3: 135
Masturbating At Night In Ramadan
If a person commits this haram action at night in Ramadan, that does not invalidate his fast, either on the day before or the day after.
But the Muslims must strive to control themselves and avoid doing this haram action and others, especially during this blessed month.
The Muslim has to make the most of this blessed month, for fasting is the best treatment for this haram thing. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) commanded young men who were unable to get married to fast. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, and whoever cannot afford it, then he should fast, for that will be a shield for him” – i.e., fasting will curb his desire.
Whoever has been tested with this must repent to Allah regret what he has done, and resolve not to do it again.
What Happens If You Masturbate In Ramadan?
