Intimate Conversations Over the Phone

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Question: Can a married couple have phone sex, as they are currently apart from each other due to immigration issues?

Answer: In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful.

Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

Such ‘intimate talk’ is permitted between spouses whether they are together or apart. However, one has to be cautious not to delve into impermissible acts such as masturbation (which is prohibited and sinful).

And Allah alone gives success.

Wassalam,
