Fasting for a person who needs to get married

· 23 Muharram 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If a girl gets involved in a great sin by rubbing her private part against a pillow and discharges, is she committing zina? She performs salah five times a day and knows about Islam. If such a girl continues this and her parents are not getting her married then what must she do?

Answer

She should fast and explain to her parents that she cannot manage.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
