(creating 'references' section, moving my link to FaithFreedom's commentary up and using as reference. BTW does anyone have a copy of vol 2 of Tahreer al-Waseelah to check this? I could only find vol 1 on archive.org) |
(going to remove " attested to and confirmed by Sunni legal sources" as this is pretty much what my Fatwa section references, if there are others please create other secitons.) |

The process of thighing (مفاخذة, mufākhadhah or also transliterated as mufa'khathat) refers to rubbing between the legs as an alternative to sexual intercourse when that is not possible due to age or menstruation.
Khomeini and the Tahreer al-Waseelah
Ayatollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic republic of Iran, wrote of this practice regarding its practice with pre-pubescent children:
ﻣﺴﺄﻟﺔ 12 : ﻻ ﻳﺠﻮﺯ ﻭﻁﺀ ﺍﻟﺰﻭﺟﺔ ﻗﺒﻞ ﺇﻛﻤﺎﻝ ﺗﺴﻊ ﺳﻨﻴﻦ ، ﺩﻭﺍﻣﺎ ﻛﺎﻥ ﺍﻟﻨﻜﺎﺡ ﺃﻭ ﻣﻨﻘﻄﻌﺎ , ﻭ ﺃﻣﺎ ﺳﺎﺋﺮ ﺍﻻﺳﺘﻤﺘﺎﻋﺎﺕ ﻛﺎﻟﻠﻤﺲ ﺑﺸﻬﻮﺓ ﻭ ﺍﻟﻀﻢ ﻭ ﺍﻟﺘﻔﺨﻴﺬ ﻓﻼ ﺑﺄﺱ ﺑﻬﺎ ﺣﺘﻰ ﻓﻰ ﺍﻟﺮﺿﻴﻌﺔ
Ruling # 12: It is not permission to have intercourse before (her) being 9 years old, be it in nikah (permanent marriage) or temporary marriage.
And as for all other pleasures such as lustful touch, embracing, and thighing (ﺍﻟﺘﻔﺨﻴﺬ), there is no problem in it even with a suckling infant.Fatwa in August 2000
A fatwa issued 8 August 2000 (number 41409 dated 7/5/1421)[1] may have said this:
- The permanent committee for scientific research and religious sanctions has looked onto the request of Abu Abdallah Mohammed Al Shamry which was sent to the committee from the general secretariat of the Committee of Higher Scholars number 1809 date 3/5/1421. The requester asked the following:
- Lately, It has spread on a large scale, especially in weddings, the habit of thighing little boys; what is the ruling of the Quran on this?
- Especially, that God’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) has thighed Ayesha (may God be pleased with her)
- The committee, after studying the request, has ruled the following:
- It is not the true guidance of Muslims throughout centuries to resort to the use of these unlawful practices, which were imported to our countries through the immoral videos that are being sent by the infidels and enemies of Islam.
- As for the thighing of the messenger of God to his fiancée Ayesha,
- she was six years old and he could not engage in sexual intercourse with her because of her young age,
- therefore he used to place his penis between her thighs and rub it lightly.
- In addition, the messenger of God had full control of his penis in contrary to the believers.
- Therefore, it is not permitted to practice thighing, whether in weddings, or at homes, or schools, due to its grave harm.
- And may God curse the infidels who brought these practices to our countries.
This appears to indicate that thighing may have only been allowed for Muhammad due to his superior penis-control, whereas common believers who were not messengers of god had sub-optimal penis control required to thigh preteen girls in a responsible fashion: only god's messenger could thigh girls without causing grave harm.
