Question

If one masturbated while fasting in Ramadhan, is the fast broken? If so, how does one make amends for the broken fasts?

Answer

Yes, the fast will be broken. He will be required to make only Qadhaa of the fast after Ramadaan. He should sincerely repent for engaging in such evil during the blessed month of Ramadaan.
