• What the Shariah says about masturbation:
The name of a complete way of life that is very natural and realistic is Islam. This religion provides clear solutions to every problem of human life. As such, Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala has prescribed a method for man to fulfill his biological desires – ‘And those who restrain their sexual organs; But they will not be reprimanded if they are not restrained in the matter of their wives and owned maids. Then whoever desires other than these, they will be transgressors.’ Surah Al Muminun: 5, 6 and 7
However, not all of these solutions may appeal to some. Those who have weak faith or those who have no faith, they will not be able to obey all the laws of Allah. But God’s law will not change for anyone. If someone wants to have sexual pleasure outside of the instructions given by Allah, then he will be guilty.
Masturbation is an act, which means polluting oneself. It is a heinous sinful act. Masturbation is a secret sin, which people commit like a thief and are ashamed to reveal. Rasulullah (s.a.) said – ‘The best character is full. And that which causes you to be troubled and which you do not like to be revealed to people, is a sin.’
Muslim, Mishkat
Surely no one would like to masturbate in public. So it can be understood from this hadith that masturbating is not a complete act. Even then, about those who indulge in secret sins, Allah Ta’ala says – ‘On that day I will put a seal on their faces; Rather, their hands will speak to me, and their feet will testify about what they used to achieve.’
– Surah Yasin, verse 65
Sexual desire is like hunger. Just as hunger is the need for food, men and women also have sexual needs when they reach a certain age. When these sexual needs cannot be satisfied by legal means, they choose the path of sin. Hence, there is a great need to facilitate marriage in our society. So that boys and girls can be free from sins like masturbation.
