Vaginal discharges due to foreplay with husband while fasting Fatwa No: 146007
- Fatwa Date:29-12-2010
Assalamu alaikum, I got married one month before Ramadan two years ago. During ramadan, my husband used to kiss, hug and play with me, even though we never had sexual intercourse during the day time. Afterwards I used to notice vaginal discharge (colourless, clear fluid, slimy), he never had any discharge. I could not stop him from playing with me even though we were fasting. My question is do I have to repay the fasts or what do I do? Jazaakumullahu khairan (Please note that I was pregnant at the time, and pregnancy causes lots of vaginal secretions and wetness)
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
First of all, we advise you to avoid such matters that you were doing in Ramadan with your husband and avoid foreplay and all what may stir your desire while fasting.
However, it appears that you are not obligated to make up those days because the white sticky liquid that comes out during foreplay and at the beginning of sexual desire is called Mathy, and if it comes out it does not invalidate fasting according to the Fatwa that we adopt here in Islamweb. For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 84129 and 83622.
Moreover, if we presume that these are nothing but vaginal discharges because of pregnancy, then this does not invalidate fasting according to the agreement of the scholars .
Allaah Knows best.
