Assalaam o Alaikum wrwb,
Respected Mufti Sahab,
I have a question. After nikah and before rukhsati, is it permissible to fantasize about one’s spouse not with the intention of masturbation but just to imagine a pleasant life and to reduce the anxiety and nervousness about marital relation?
May Allah (swt) bless you with immense rewards and blessings. Please remember us in your duas.
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible after Nikaah.
