Question:

Is it lawful for a husband to suck his wife's breast during sex to give her pleasure in Islam?

---

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

 

Islaamic legislation permits the husband and wife to enjoy each other's body. So, a husband can enjoy his wife in all manners; by looking, touching, sucking, etc.

However, he has to avoid anal intercourse, or sex during her menses, or during the confinement period.

For more details on this subject, please read the Fatwas: 84646 and 83713.

Allaah knows best.
