Is it permissible for a young man who is married but has not yet consummated the marriage, and who suffers from frequent nocturnal emissions and pain during erection, to practice masturbation with his wife over the phone by listening to her voice, and is there any sin upon her for that, and does the ruling on practicing masturbation apply to her if she weakens in the face of lust?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a valid marriage contract has been concluded, the spouses are permitted to enjoy each other. Masturbation upon hearing the wife's voice is permissible, by analogy with masturbation using her body parts, provided that the masturbator does not use his hand or any other body part, and ensures that the voice is indeed that of his wife. There is no difference in this ruling between a man and a woman.
