What is the ruling on a menstruating woman masturbating during the day in Ramadan while she is not fasting due to menstruation?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If you broke your fast due to menstruation, then you must make up those days and offer sincere repentance for masturbation. You are not sinful for deliberately invalidating the fast because you were already not fasting. It is recommended to occupy oneself with what benefits in religion and worldly matters, guard one’s thoughts, and frequently observe fasts, remember Allah, and supplicate.
