Question

I am aware that oral sex is Makrooh. I have recently come across an article(western health website) stating that impurites from private organs could be dangerous and one should avoid these coming into the mouth. The article suggested using a sheath (alternatively dental dam) to cover the private area of a women before doing such acts. If one does take the above precautions, will the act be permissable?

Answer

The mouth is used for reciting the Qur’aan and taking the name of Allah Ta’aala. The mouth is not meant for anything filthy and disgusting. Since oral sex is a disgusting act, it should not be done in any manner.
