Using remote controlled sex toys when spouses live in different countries
Question
My wife and I live in different countries, and I have been advised that using sex toys is permissible if used by one's partner.
My question is: Can we use a remote-controlled sex toy, where I have control at times and she also has control at other times? Does this fall under acceptable use, or is it considered masturbation?
Answer
These are all unnatural and are methods that have not been sanctioned by the shariah. Intimacy means that both have physical contact.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
