Is It Permissible for a Wife to Perform Anal Sex on Her Husband (Pegging)?


Answered by Mawlana Ilyas Patel

Question

My husband and I want to engage in a pegging sexual act (in which a woman performs anal sex on a man). Is this sexual act permissible?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate.

I pray you are in good faith and health.

Anal sex is strictly prohibited for both sexes, let alone the female performing a penetrating act on the male. Many narrations of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) emphasize this.

Abu Hurayra (Allah be pleased with him) reported,  The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “He has been cursed, who goes into his wife from her backside.” [Abu Dawud]

The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “Allah will not look (with mercy) at the one that has anal sex with his wife (meaning on the day of Qiyamah).” [Sunan Nasa’i]

Within sharia, there are numerous ways to fulfill your marital fantasies. Please take a look at the links below. I recommend you remember Allah together, worship Him together, and discuss what benefits you in this world and the next. One must remember that many people are unable to marry for various reasons; one should be grateful to have a spouse to fulfill one’s desires in the proper manner.

Allah Most High grants us all success in living Islam every day through good speech, actions, and heart, amin.
