    Intercourse in the back passage – Islam Question & Answer

    islamqa.info › … › Fiqh of the family › Kind Treatment of Spouses

    The scholars have stated that it is permissible to enjoy that which is between a woman’s thighs and between the buttocks, without penetrating the back passage.

    Question

    During my period my husband asked me to let him rub the head of his erect penis against my anal sphincter so that he could feel pleasure until he ejaculated. Is this permissible in Islam?.

    Praise be to Allah.

    Firstly: 

    The fuqaha’ are agreed that it is haraam to have intercourse with a menstruating woman in her vagina, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

    “keep away from women during menses and go not unto them till they are purified (from menses and have taken a bath).”

    [al-Baqarah 2:222]

    And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Do everything except intercourse.” Narrated by Muslim (455). Al-Nawawi narrated that there was consensus on this point. 

    Secondly: 

    It is haraam to have intercourse with a woman in her back passage, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

    “And when they have purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allaah has ordained for you (go in unto them in any manner as long as it is in their vagina)”

    [al-Baqarah 2:222]

    i.e., in the front passage, which is the place of tilth. This is confirmed by the verse in which Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

    “Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will”

    [al-Baqarah 2:223]

    The back passage is not the place of tilth. 

    There are ahaadeeth which indicate that it is haraam to have intercourse with a woman in her back passage. It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Cursed be the one who has intercourse with his wife in her back passage.” Narrated by Ahmad and Abu Dawood (2162); classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood. 

    See also question no. 1103. 

    Thirdly: 

    The scholars have stated that it is permissible to enjoy that which is between a woman’s thighs and between the buttocks, without penetrating the back passage. 

    Imam al-Shaafa’i said in al-Umm (8/257): 

    With regard to enjoying what is between the buttocks without penetrating, there is nothing wrong with that. End quote. 

    Ibn Qudaamah said in al-Mughni (7/226): 

    There is nothing wrong with enjoying that which is between the buttocks without penetrating, because the Sunnah forbids the back passage, and applies only to that. And it is haraam because it is harmful, and that applies only to the back passage, so the prohibition applies only to that. End quote. 

    It says in Rawd al-Taalib:

    What the husband is allowed to enjoy of his wife: 

    He may enjoy everything except her anal sphincter, even that which is between the buttocks. As for enjoying the anal sphincter it is haraam to have intercourse there, because of the report which says: “Allaah is not too shy to tell the truth; do not have intercourse with women in their back passages.” Narrated and classed as saheeh by al-Shaafa’i. End quote. 

    It says in Asna al-Mataalib (3/185): 

    The words “As for having intercourse in her anal sphincter…” – such as if part of the tip of the penis disappears into it. End quote. 

    Based on this, there is nothing wrong with what was asked about, subject to the condition that there be no risk of the tip of the penis or part of it entering the back passage, for that is haraam. 

    And Allaah knows best.

    HER NAME WAS AISHA AND SHE WAS A VICTIM OF

    THIGHING = MUFA’KHATHAT

    Literally translated, it means “placing between the thighs”

    IMAGINE!

    Imagine a 50 year old Arab stripping a 6 year old child naked and putting his “willie” between her thighs and wanking himself off; squirting his cum all over the child’s naked body!

    IMAGINE!

    Imagine this now 53 year old Arab having full, penetrative sexual intercourse with the 9 year old child and shooting his “load” of cum into her small vagina, shouting, “Allah Akbar”!

    IMAGINE!

    Allah says in the Quran:

    (Sura 33:21).

    You have indeed in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example for him who hopes in Allah and the Last Day, and who remembers Allah much.

    In this verse Allah instructs Muslims to follow Prophet Muhammad who was an embodiment of the great values and manners of the Quran. He gave the best example for mankind in human history. Many Muslim writers bear witness that Prophet Muhammad is the greatest man in human history. 

    Sura 68:05                 

    And thou dost, surely, possess sublime moral excellencies.             

    There is no “broad” or “narrow” reading of the Quran, as The New York Times and countless other organs of Western Islamophilia would have us believe. A Muslim is not free to believe or do what he wishes. The basis of the social and legal order and obligation in Islam is the Quran, the final and perfect revelation of Allah’s will that is to be obeyed by all creation. (Surah 4:105)

    The Islamic law, the Shari’a, is not a supplement to the “secular” legal code, it is the only such code and the only basis of obligation, because a

    Muslim’s only true allegiance is to Allah, and to Muhammad:

    “He who obeys the Messenger, obeys Allah.” (Quran 4:8)

    Islam is a revealed religion, strongly focused on its grounding in history, in the historical person of Muhammad, his revelation and his example. Events as they happened, with all recorded or alleged words and deeds of the Prophet, are the foundation of the faith, law, and social convention. Even his apparently trivial actions and utterances were passed on as rules and mode of conduct, in accordance with the Quranic statement that Muhammad is “a beautiful pattern (of conduct).” (Quran 33:21)

    His sayings and acts guide the lives of all true Muslims to this day, including his rape of enslaved girls and women and his rape of a prepubescent “wife.” Muhammad offers the eternal model of behavior for every little detail of everyday life for all time.

    That Muhammad’s actions and words, as immortalized in the Quran and recorded in the Traditions, are frankly shocking by the standards of our time and punishable by its laws goes without saying. There are hundreds of contemporary Western apologists, however, who argue that we must not extend the judgmental yardstick of our own culture to the members of other cultures who have lived in other eras.

    Even in the context of seventh century Arabia, however, Muhammad had to resort to divine revelations as a means of suppressing the prevalent moral code of his own milieu. Indulging with considerable abandon one’s sensual passions was so fundamentally at odds with the moral standards of his own Arab contemporaries that only the ultimate authority could, and did, sanction it.
