The question

Does the emission of semen due to pressure from diapers count as masturbation, necessitating making up the days (of fasting) in Ramadan, and what should one do if they suspect the emission of semen but there are no clear signs?

The answer

The emission of semen due to a deliberate act (masturbation) invalidates the fast and necessitates ghusl (ritual bath). However, its emission without deliberate action does not invalidate the fast, but necessitates ghusl if its emission is confirmed. Doubt about the emission of semen does not necessitate ghusl, and one should disregard such doubts to avoid falling into whispers (waswasah).
