Does a husband's early awakening and practice of masturbation indicate his discomfort with his wife or her shortcomings in fulfilling his rights?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Masturbation is forbidden, and the husband must repent from it. The wife should advise him and clarify the prohibition of this act and the danger of its health consequences. It is preferable that this be done indirectly. She should also try to fulfill his desires and sexual needs. There is no sin upon the wife for what her husband does, as long as she fulfills his rights.
