Is a man's fondling of his wife with certain words considered a lie written against him?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The default ruling for lying is prohibition, except that the Sharia has permitted lying in three situations: war, reconciling people, and a man speaking to his wife and a woman speaking to her husband. The permissibility of lying between spouses is in matters related to their interaction and fostering affection between them. If the playful banter falls under this category, it is not considered a lie.
