If the man cannot determine with certainty what length of his

penis entered into the vagina, and if he has gone in beyond

the circumcision ring, his fast has not been broken.

If a man has intercourse because he has forgotten that he is in a

fasting period, or if someone forces him to have intercourse, his

fast has not been broken. But if he remembers the fast while the

sex act is taking place, or if he is no longer forcibly constrained

to complete the coitus, he must interrupt it immediately.

If a man during a fasting period masturbates and brings himself

to ejaculation, his fasting has been broken.

If a man ejaculates involuntarily, his fast remains valid, but if he

himself does anything whatsoever to help along his involuntary

ejaculation, the fast is considered to be null and void.

If, in order to rescue a person from drowning, one’s head

becomes immersed during a period of fasting, one’s fast

is invalidated, even if there  was no other way of saving

the drowning person’s life.
