There are varying opinions on the permissibility of masturbation (Arabic: استمناء, translit. istimnā’). It is forbidden in Shi'a jurisprudence.[1] It is considered haram according to the Malik. It's said to be 100% forbidden and allowed by many Muslims. This is a very controversial and debated topic as the Quran has no direct verse on masturbation. [2][3]
Scholars of Islam have differed whether masturbation is allowed or not. There is no authentic evidence from the Hadiths or any Quranic verse forbidding masturbation. Some researchers in Islam have concluded that masturbation is completely halaal (allowed) and engaging in masturbation during Ramadan would not nullify one's fast.[4]
