Question


1) if one masterbated while fasting, is the fast broken or mukrooh?

2) ) if a man gives his wife talaaq in writing only, not verbally, is the marriage still over?

Answer

Muhtaram / Muhtaramah

 

In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.


  1. The fast will be broken and you will have to keep a Qadha Fast to compensate.
  2. Talaq is valid whether issued verbally or in writing.

And Allah knows best
