How common is..........

Re: How common is..........

i have grown up hearing this is prohibited. heard it is allowed only in a situation where one fears the sin of committing fornication.
i don't have any Quran quotes handy at the moment that i can give you until i search some.

Re: How common is..........

some people here are too pathetic.

Re: How common is..........

What is the purpose of opening these kind of threads?

And even weird are the so called honest responses to it.

Re: How common is..........

seriously, cudnt be more disgusting. Jab modesty ki dhajian urti hain. And modesty is for both men and women.

Re: How common is..........

I suppose the answer here is to not read threads like these. I mean, from the way in which it was written, when I read the OP I thought she meant doing things that make you feel empowered or happy like taking a bubble bath or looking in the mirror and self-praising or something lol I dunno.... I only realised what this thread was about after reading the subsequent posts!

Re: How common is..........

You can disagree with the actions but not being able to have a candid conversation about sex is a huge problem in Pakistan. You can express your views without labeling things "disgusting".

While I do agree that almost every guy indulges in it, it's not a certainty. There's actually a forum on reddit for people who abstain from masturbation. What's interesting is that it was started by an atheist, meant to help people who were addicted to porn. Not everyone there is single, many people choose to abstain so that their partner is the sole focus of their sexuality.

On a related note, our brains are on a bit of an overdrive nowadays, with the easy availability of porn, movies, games, etc. Smartphones are probably the worst offenders. Some people make the claim that shutting the world out once in a while, and praying, meditating, or engaging in some other activity is great for recharging.

Re: How common is..........

i think i ask the question in an appropriate manner. i don't find discussing how common it is as immodest. may be the act itself is immodest but how come asking about how rare or common it is or how many people have indulged in this can be termed as immodest or weird. don't we all discuss about things like adultery, cheating,lying,alcoholism, misbehaving etc etc then why only this seems to be disgusting??

Re: How common is..........

Dear OP.

Please tell us about yourself too.

Re: How common is..........

It is said ...

90% do it .. and remaining 10% lie about it ..

P.S:
I was never involved :p

Re: How common is..........

from mature perspective, its not disgusting to "discuss" about such things .. but if you are asking this question in Life & Relationship .. then be prepare for trash talk, hate messages .. and some fatwas

Re: How common is..........

So youre saying its the consideration of risks that makes billions of men prefer jerking off ?

Re: How common is..........

Talking about men or women?

Re: How common is..........

Both, but as a man I can say safely about my gender... now I've heard some cases where tasting the real fruit didn't help and they continued self-gratification on and off.

Re: How common is..........

And whats the disgusting part ? Discussing about it ? or actually doing it in your privacy ?

I am not saying about you, but the fact is many people just dont take this act as normal even though they are doing it themselves. They can discuss sex between 2 people openly but not this act. Just like wives take it as a threat if they find out about their husbands doing it in those 7 days.

Re: How common is..........

I dont think you will find any direct quote against it. I am 99% sure about it. There can be many arguments against it for sure but none prohibiting it directly.

As far as being allowed in that case of fear of commiting adultry, thats just like man allowed 4 marriages in some circumstances and under strict conditions, men just take it "men are allowed 4 marriages". Whats allowed is allowed. May be someone is in fear of commiting adultry every day, or may be twice a day. Who knows.

Re: How common is..........

when i was in my teens i was tempted to experience it but somehow the though that it is prohibited has kept me away from doing it.

Re: How common is..........

i agree,but this mentality exists in desis or to some extent in Muslims. the west is pretty much fine with this phenomenon and take this as a part of growing up.

Re: How common is..........


s

"desi" guys aren't embarrassed to discuss these things with each other ..

Re: How common is..........
