Question

I understand that oral sex is makrooh. What does this mean? Will I be punished if I engage in this activity?

Is it permissable to kiss or lick private areas (for arousal) without swallowing any body fluid?

Answer

Sin is a different issue all together. However, this act is disgusting, just as the filth in the nose is not licked though it is not napaak.
