  1. No I dont think it is its haraam

    • i read all the references but i have the opinion that there is no specific and fullest authentic qoutation in islam which reveals that it is allowed will you please bring up the light weather it is only a presumption or clearly allowed.

  2. salaam,
    Oral in Islam, well it's makrooh(better to avoid and not haraam (forbidden)),both partners' consent
    is required and no fluid must enter the mouth and noone must be hurt during the act.

    plz refer the following links

    it's better to avoid oral sex

  3. There is no prohibition against oral sex in Islam and the scholars consider it halal. However, there is a general consensus that resulting bodily fluids should not be swallowed.

    Aasif, did you read your own links? From your first link:

    ***

    Shaikh Qaradawi: Muslim jurists are of the opinion that it is lawful for the husband to perform cunnilingus on his wife, or a wife to perform the similar act for her husband (fellatio) and there is no wrong in doing so. But if sucking leads to releasing semen, then it is Makruh (blameworthy), but there is no decisive evidence (to forbid it).

    Dr. Ali Jum`ah, professor of the Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence at Al-Azhar Univ., says further that licking, sucking and kissing spouse's sexual organs are all allowed, as long as it gives a person sexual gratification that will keep him away from Haram (unlawful) or starring at opposite sex (marriageable). But every Muslim must keep in mind that sexual intercourse is just a lust and passion that must be satisfied in a lawful way; it's not to be perceived as necessary as foods and drinks, as it's the case in the Western perverted ideology.

    Shedding more light on this, Dr. Sabri `Abdul Ra’ouf, professor of Islamic Comparative Jurisprudence, at Al-Azhar Univ, says that it's allowed for the married couple to enjoy each other as long as what they do does not run counter to the teachings of Islam or violate the public norms. He also gives support to the view of Sheikh Al-Qaradawi that oral sex or kissing private parts of the spouse is something viewed disgusting to Muslims, but if the aim is just kissing (without having constant indulgence in it) it's not sinful to do that, but people of high morality normally keep away from that, as not to give in to imitating non-Muslims.”

    In conclusion, it has become clear now that oral sex is not prohibited, but it is not the normal choice for committed Muslims and Muslimahs. That's, despite that oral sex is not Haram, it is completely disgusting and does not conform to the pure taste and decency of a Muslim personality.

    ***

    I agree with these scholars when they speak from their Islamic knowledge, in terms of halal and hararm. When they begin expressing their own opinions about what Muslims view as disgusting, and see this act as "imitating non-Muslims", I think they show their own naiveté. Oral sex is something that is common in the world and has been for thousands of years. The Muslim world has traditionally never been shy of sensual pleasure. As long as it remains between husband and wife, there is nothing wrong with it.
