Sex in Islam

At the time of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the Sahaabah were not too shy to ask about all affairs, including sexual matters, so as to know the teachings of Islam in these matters. As Aisha (ra), the wife of the Prophet testified, "Blessed are the women of the Ansar. Shyness did not stand in their way of seeking knowledge about their religion." (Agreed upon).



The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "There is no shyness in matters of religion." We often receive questions about these matters at Zawaj.com, usually from married couples who want to know what is permissible. Therefore we introduce this page.

Islamic view of anal sex


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anal sex in Sunni Islam is not entirely prohibited[citation needed], and is controversial among Islamic scholars. Disputes over anal sex also appear in pre-modern sources [1] such as the hadith of Sahih Bukhari [2] and Usul al-Kafi. It is practiced by some Muslims as a means of family planning on the authority of above cites sources.[3] It is currently overwhelmingly considered taboo however.[2]

The Koran states that "Your women are tilth for you (to cultivate) so go to your tilth as ye will, and send (good deeds) before you for your souls, and fear Allah, and know that ye will (one day) meet Him."(PICKTHAL translation) [Qur'an 2:223].

Send before you here refers to foreplay.[citation needed]


References for and against

The Bukhari Sharif Hadith 4170 & 4171 state that anal sex is permissible (halal). It also refers to what al-Bukhaari tells of Naafi' telling of Ibn Umar analysing the passage "so go to your tilth when or how you will". Umar's interpretation was that "he may approach her from …" (Volume 6, Book 60, Number 50 = #4253).[4] Umar's interpretation however has been questioned.

On the ellipsis Ibn Hajar says in Fath al-Bari (8/189): This is how it appears in all the texts. It does not mention what comes after the word "from".' He also quotes other sources than al-Bukhaari, which have Ibn 'Umar saying "He may approach her in her back passage." [5]

Most Muslim jurists agree that anal sex is haram, based on the hadith: "Do not have anal sex with women", reported by Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi, Al-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah.

Khuzaima ibn Thabit also reports that the messenger of Allah said: "Allah is not too shy to tell you the truth: "Do not have sex with your wives in the anus", reported by Ahmad, 5/213.

`Abd Allah ibn `Abbas narrates: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah will not look at a man who has anal sex with his wife", reported by Ibn Abi Shaybah (3/529) and At-Tirmidhi, classified it as an authentic hadith (1165).

It is reported that Muhammad referred to such acts as "minor sodomy," reported by Ahmad and An-Nasa'i.

However, there are hadith which permit anal sex, one in Sunni Islam and two in Shia Islam. The Sahih Bukhari (Volume 6, Book 60: Prophetic Commentary on the Qur'an (Tafseer of the Prophet), Hadith No. 50)[4], an important document for Sunnis, permits it. Its authenticity is conformed by a hadith of Sunan Abu Dawud (Book 11: Marriage (Kitab Al-Nikah), Hadith Number 2159)[6], though the said hadith itself is in disagreement with many other hadith in other books, except for the Sahih Bukhari.[7].

In Shia Islam, the book of hadith Kitab al-Kafi (the Bukhari of Shi'ism) states that anal sex with woman is considered repulsive. The Grand Ayatollah has decreed that anal intercourse is "not permissible without the wife's consent".

Clarification in Hadith Literature

Sahih Bukhari book 60 Hadith No. 50 has mentioned directly of Anal Sex and is not referring to the same matter as Hadith No. 51. The reasoning that the Arabic text of Hadith has left the word blank is valid. Other references are as:

An-Nasa'i reported that Ka`b bin `Alqamah said that Abu An-Nadr said that he asked Nafi`, "The people are repeating the statement that you relate from Ibn `Umar that he allowed sex with women in their rear (anus). He said, "They have said a lie about me. But let me tell you what really happened. Ibn `Umar was once reciting the Qur'an while I was with him and he reached the Ayah:

(Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will,) He then said, `O Nafi`! Do you know the story behind this Ayah' I said, `No.' He said, `We, the people of Quraysh, used to have sexual intercourse with our wives from the back (in the vagina). When we migrated to Al-Madinah and married some Ansari women, we wanted to do the same with them. They disliked it and made a big issue out of it. The Ansari women had followed the practice of the Jews who have sex with their women while they lay on their sides. Then, Allah revealed: (Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will,) This has an authentic chain of narrators.

Abu Bakr bin Ziyad Naysaburi reported that Isma`il bin Ruh said that he asked Malik bin Anas, "What do you say about having sex with women in the anus He said, "You are not an Arab Does sex occur but in the place of pregnancy Do it only in the Farj (vagina). I said, "O Abu `Abdullah! They say that you allow that practice. He said, "They utter a lie about me, they lie about me. This is Malik's firm stance on this subject. It is also the view of Sa`id bin Musayyib, Abu Salamah, `Ikrimah, Tawus, `Ata , Sa`id bin Jubayr, `Urwah bin Az-Zubayr, Mujahid bin Jabr, Al-Hasan and other scholars of the Salaf (the Companions and the following two generations after them). They all, along with the majority of the scholars, harshly rebuked the practice of anal sex and many of them called this practice a Kufr.
