Does kissing ones wife while fasting invalidate the fast?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

During Fasting in the month of Ramadaan, I got intimidated with my wife and kissed passionately. But we didn’t had sex  and neither of us ejaculated.

Does this effect our fast and for this do we need to offer Qadha.

Kindly advise.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh

In principle, one’s fast will not be invalidated by kissing one’s wife. However, the fast will be invalidated if one swallowed the saliva of another.[1]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
