Is Masturbation a sin as per the Quran?
Answer:
Allah says in the Holy Quran: Chapter 23 Surah Muminoon verses 1-11:1 The Believers must (eventually) win through
2 Those who humble themselves in their prayers;
3 Who avoid vain talk;
4 Who are active in deeds of charity;
5 Who abstain from sex,
6 Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right hands possess; for (in their case) they are free from blame.
7 But those whose desires exceed those limits, are transgressors.
8 Those who faithfully observe their trust and their covenants;
9 And who (strictly) guard their prayers
10 Those will be the heirs
11 Who will inherit Paradise: they will dwell therein (forever).
The scholars of all schools of thought are unanimous in their opinion that the evil act of ‘masturbation’ would fall under the category of ‘those whose desires exceed the limits’.
The believers, who sincerely fear Allah and the Last Day, are duty bound to stay within the limits prescribed by Allah Subhanah. Those who exceed the limits prescribed by Allah, are indeed transgressors; and Allah does not love the transgressors. LIKE US ON FACEBOOK
