Does sleeping naked with wife and touching her breasts break the fast?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
If a man sleeps with his wife naked but does not have intercourse does that break his fast? even if he touches her breasts?

Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

It is narrated from A’isha (RA) that,” Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) used to kiss and do Mubasharah whilst he was fasting..” (Bukhari and Muslim)

It is also narrated from A’isha (RA) that,” Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) used to do Mubasharah with me whilst he was fasting and he was best in controlling over his desires. ” (Darse Tirmidhi Vol. 2 Pg. 569)

To Kiss and to do Mubasharah (skin to skin contact) will be Makruh (disliked) if one does not have control over himself, in doing intercourse and ejaculating. If however, he has control over himself, then it will be without dislikeness.

(Hashiyatut Tahtawi Pg. 680)

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
