Does one who stops masturbating before ejaculation, then a few moments later, without desire, some drops of semen are released, break their fast? And what is the way to ask the mother for marriage to get rid of this habit?

The answer

Masturbation is forbidden at all times, and its punishment is more severe during Ramadan. If one masturbates and semen is released, even without desire, their fast is broken, and they must make up that day. Some scholars hold that the fast is broken merely by the movement of semen. The majority of scholars believe that only making up the day is obligatory, not the major expiation (kaffarah kubra). Repentance for this act involves abandoning it, regretting it, and resolving never to do it again in the future. You should be forthright with your mother about marriage, or use an intermediary to persuade her. If you are unable to marry, then you must fast frequently, for it is a protection, in addition to frequently remembering Allah, supplicating, and seeking beneficial knowledge.
