In this video, a fatwa is given regarding the ruling on masturbation (al-‘adah al-sirriyyah). The Shaykh explains that it is haram, based on the clear words of Allah in Surah Al-Mu’minun (23:5–7). The Muslim is commanded to guard his private parts, seeking intimacy only with his wife or what the right hand possesses. Anything beyond that is transgression. Masturbation falls into this category, as it is seeking unlawful pleasure outside of what Allah has permitted. This ruling is agreed upon by the scholars of Islam. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📖 Official Fatwa Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-EZCHDsOiA&list=LL&index=5 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📌 Qur’an Evidence: “And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts) – Except from their wives or (the slaves) that their right hands possess, for then, they are free from blame. But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors.” [Surah Al-Mu’minun 23:5–7, Muhsin Khan Translation] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚠️ Reminder: Whoever is tested with this should strive to leave it, seek help from Allah, and fear transgressing the limits of Allah. True honor is in obedience to Him. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔖 Hashtags: #Islam #Fatwa #Salafi #Quran #Sunnah #Fiqh #IslamicRuling #Shariah #Halal #Haram #Masturbation #PrivateParts #Shaykh #FatwaIslam #Aqidah #FiqhOfWorship #GuardYourChastity #MajorScholars #IslamicKnowledge #Hadith #Tawheed #Shirk #Kufr #Salaf #IslamicReminder #MuslimYouth #ObedienceToAllah #FearAllah #IslamicAdvice #Knowledge #AhlusSunnah
