Did I break my fast by masturbating while fasting?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
When i was 15 years old i didnt knew that masturbating breaks fast and it is gunah and i masturbated in roza….and i continued my roza …now after a year i have came to know that it breaks roza….so my question is what is my punishment for this….should i have to keep 60 fasts!!!!???

Answer

(Fatwa: 2208/1800=B/1429)

In the case mentioned above, you have to make qaza of the fasts during which you committed masturbation, but there is no kaffarah:

ولو کان مخطئاً او مکرھا فعلیہ القضاء، وکذا اذا نظر الی امراۃ فامنی لما بینا و صار کالمتفکر اذا امنی وکالمستمنی بالکف (ھدایۃ 1:217)
