Fast breaking through masturbating

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: If a person commits the sin of masturbation during the fast of Ramadhaan, does kaffarah become wajib? If not, why is this so?

Bismillaah

A: The fast will break. However there will only be qadha, no kaffarah. Kaffarah only become compulsory in the case the jinaayat  is taam.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
