[1]الدر المختار وحاشية ابن عابدين (رد المحتار) (1/ 289)

وَفِي شَرْحِ الْوِقَايَةِ: وَضْعُ الْكُرْسُفِ مُسْتَحَبٌّ لِلْبِكْرِ فِي الْحَيْضِ وَلِلثَّيِّبِ فِي كُلِّ حَالٍ، وَمَوْضِعُهُ مَوْضِعُ الْبَكَارَةِ، وَيُكْرَهُ فِي الْفَرْجِ الدَّاخِلِ. اهـ وَالْكُرْسُفُ: بِضَمِّ الْكَافِ وَالسِّينِ الْمُهْمَلَةِ بَيْنَهُمَا رَاءٌ سَاكِنَةٌ الْقُطْنُ. وَفِي اصْطِلَاحِ الْفُقَهَاءِ: مَا يُوضَعُ عَلَى فَمِ الْفَرْجِ

 ذخر المتاهلين بشرحه المنهل الواردين (171)

(و يكره وضغه) اي: وضع جميعه (في الفرج الداخل) لانه يشبه النكاح بيدها، “محيط”.
