Brief Miscellaneous Q & A Relating to Fasting (8/22)
Question
If one kisses or caresses one’s spouse and consequently ejaculates, is one’s fast broken?
Answer
Yes, the fast is invalidated. However one will only have to make up for the fast (Qadha), and there will be no expiation (Kaffara) in this situation.
Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
