It is confirmed that `A’ishah said: The Prophet would kiss and embrace while he was fasting, for he had the most control of all of you over his desires. ‘Umar said: I was excited one time and I kissed [my wife] while I was fasting.
I went to the Prophet and said: ‘Today I committed a horrendous act—I kissed while I was fasting.’ The Prophet asked: ‘What do you think of rinsing with water while fasting?’I said: ‘There is nothing wrong with that.’ The Prophet said: ‘Then what is the question about?’
However, as said earlier such actions should be avoided as one may eject or arouse further which leaves one fast broken and punishment or kufarah shall be imposed.
