Is my understanding correct that Ibn Hazm does not consider masturbation forbidden, and he uses the verses, "And He has explained to you in detail what He has forbidden to you" and "He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth" as evidence for its permissibility, despite his disapproval of it?
What the questioner mentioned about Ibn Hazm is correct; his view is that masturbation is permissible, but the majority of scholars disagreed with him.
