Sexual talk between the husband and wife over the telephone
*Please appropriately reference this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: Is it permissible for the husband and wife to talk about sex over the telephone (and by doing so) they arouse each other until one of them or both of them have an orgasm [making sure not to use the hand because it is haraam]. We do this because my husband travels alot and we only (get to) see each other every four months?

Response: There is no harm (in this). Yes this is permissible.

Question: And (is this permissible) even with the use of the hand?

Response: There is some (element of) uncertainty in (the issue of) using the hand; And it is not permissible except if he fears falling into adultery.

Question: (So) there is no harm (in doing so) without using the hand?

Response: Yes, there is no harm (in doing so) without using the hand (while) he imagines he is with her. And it is befitting upon them both that they are careful no-one listens to their speech or spies upon them. And Allaah is the Most Knowledgeable.
