Jazak’Allah Khair
Answer:
We all tend to use abbreviations, but in this case we have to embrace the opinion of respected Imam Nawawi (Radi Allahu Anhu), who in his commentary on “Muslim Sharif” states:
“One who indulges in this act is stripped from a very great benefit (Khair) and has lost a great reward.”
