If a fasting person masturbates without intending ejaculation, but ejaculates nonetheless, their fast is broken, and they are only required to make up the fast (qada') without expiation (), because they caused the emission of semen. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen mentioned that whoever seeks to cause the emission of semen by any means until it is ejaculated, their fast is invalidated thereby.
