Summary
Inserting a sex toy or something similar into the vagina while fasting in Ramadan breaks the fast and it must be made up. The reasons are that the act amounts to masturbation and also to inserting something into an open cavity. No expiation (kafarah) is due, but doing it deliberately without a valid excuse is sinful. The person must also refrain from other things that break the fast for the rest of the day.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Memasukkan alat seks atau seumpamanya di dalam faraj ketika sedang berpuasa di bulan Ramadan, hukumnya adalah batal dan wajib digantikan.
