The answer

Scholars have differed regarding one who ejaculates due to repeated looking, whether it invalidates his fast or not, and many of them favored the invalidation of his fast. The questioner erred by intentionally invalidating his fast through unrestricted looking, and this is among the major sins. What is obligatory upon him, along with sincere repentance, is to make up the fast of that day. Expiation is not obligatory upon him except for breaking the fast through sexual intercourse, according to the preponderant opinion.
