Q: I have heard that it is ok for Hanafis to masturbate if there is a serious chance of falling into sin and masturbating can help to relieve some of that sexual tension thus avoiding the sin. Is this true? If it is true, is it fine if I masturbate so that it is easier to avoid watching pornography?
Q: I have a problem (of making ghusal farz by hands) for the last 5 years. I have tried my best to leave it. Once, I have been able to leave it for 3 months but after that I was caught by it again. I have asked forgiveness every time from Almighty Allah and alhmdulillah He has blessed me every time, but I couldnt leave the sin.
I am average in ibadaat. Sometimes I perform salaah 5 times a day for a month or few months and sometimes I leave it out for a few days and sometimes I dodge a few prayers.
Kindly tell me a simple and easy solution to leave out this sin.
