ANALYSIS OF ISLAMIC LAW ON THE USE OF SEXUAL TECHNOLOGY IN INCREASING SEXUAL SATISFACTION OF HUSBAND AND WIFE

Abstract

The understanding of sexuality in modern society has undergone significant changes, with discussions often considered taboo despite its essential role in human life. Within Islam, sexual relations are permitted only in a valid marriage, where they serve to strengthen the marital bond. This study aims to analyze the Islamic legal perspective on the use of sexual technologies in enhancing marital satisfaction. The research employed a library research method by reviewing primary sources—such as the Qur’an and Hadith—along with classical fiqh texts and contemporary scholarly works, using a qualitative analytical approach. The findings reveal that technological developments have introduced various sexual aids, which scholars evaluate differently: some permit their use under the principle of maslahat (benefit), while others prohibit them based on concerns of transgressing Sharia boundaries. This study is limited to the scope of Islamic legal discourse and does not address psychological or medical dimensions. The results highlight the diversity of scholarly opinions and provide a reference for Muslim couples in aligning sexual practices with Islamic principles.
