Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
Do female orgasms without penetration require ghusl?
Answer:
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
Any orgasm that is accompanied by sexual desire (actual or effective), whether accompanied by penetration or not, requires ghusl. [Radd al-Muhtar]
“A purificatory bath is necessitated by:
a) sperm or female ejaculate that leaves its place of origin with desire [f: whether actual or effective], even if it exits the body without desire, even if without sexual intercourse;
b) the head of the penis entering either private part of a living human being who is fit for sexual intercourse, even without any release of sexual fluids ” [al-Hadiyya al-`Ala’iyya, ]
Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani
