What is the ruling if two women engage in intimate contact and both ejaculate?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Fasting
Primary text
If two women ejaculate during intimate contact, their fasts are invalidated. There is a difference of opinion regarding whether they incur expiation (kaffara), mirroring the ruling for one who engages in intercourse without penetration. The sounder of the two opinions holds that no expiation is obligatory upon them because this act is neither explicitly mentioned in the texts nor is it analogous to an explicitly mentioned act, thus returning to the default principle of non-obligation.

There are two differing opinions regarding whether the women are subject to the expiation required for one who performs intercourse without penetration if ejaculation occurs. This divergence depends on whether ejaculation from a woman in this context necessitates expiation.
