Question

Assalamu alaikum,

I understand the fatwa re oral sex on your website.

However kindly advise if the following (as mentioned on a health website) is permitted:

it mentions that in order to avoid impurities entering the mouth, a plastic sheet or a dental dam should be placed over the private area of the women.

Can this be done in islam, Also can this be done to arouse the female only.

It has also suggested using a condom for the man. Is this allowed in islam?

Wassalam
