Is one who tampers with his penis and then ejaculates unintentionally as sinful as one who ejaculates intentionally?

"Playing with the male organ until ejaculation is masturbation, which is forbidden (haram), based on the Almighty's saying: 'And those who guard their private parts Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not to be blamed' (Al-Mu'minun: 5-6). Thus, enjoyment is only permitted with one's wife or female slave. This act involves the expulsion of fluid and the arousal of lust in an improper context without excuse, whether one intends ejaculation or not. It is also not permissible to do it merely for desire without intending ejaculation."
