Does masturbation breaks one’s Fast and is Kaffara required ?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Fatwaa.com

Assalamu alaikum
Should one make Kaffara for the fast of Ramadan invalidated by masturbation or only Qada for that particular fast will be made according to Hanbali school of thought ?

Answer

Wa’alaykum as Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,

Because both views are authenticated within the Hambali Madhab, it is best to keep the Kaffaarah as well.

And Allaah Ta’aala knows best

Wassalaam,
