Is it obligatory to make up the days for one who masturbated during menstruation in Ramadan?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Masturbation is forbidden and reprehensible in Islamic law. It is even more strictly forbidden in Ramadan. The questioner must repent to Allah Almighty and abstain from this practice. As for making up days, she is required to make up the days she missed fasting due to menstruation. She is not required to make up additional days due to masturbating during her menstrual period because she did not invalidate any fast thereby.
