وإذا إشتهى وصور في نفسه شخصاً أو دعى بإسمه فإن كان زوجةً أو أمة له فلا بأس إذا كان غائباً عنها لأن الفعل جائز ولا يمنع من توهّمه وتخيّله وإن كان غلاماً أو أجنبية كُره له ذلك لأنه إغراء لنفسه بالحرام وحثٌ لها عليه

بدائع الفوائد لإبن قيّم

If a man feels desire and makes an image of someone in his mind or calls their name, there is no problem if it is a wife or servant girl of his, if he is absent from her, for the act is permissible and it is not forbidden for him to fantasize or imagine. But if it is a boy or woman other than a wife or marriageable relative, this is disapproved, since he is seducing himself by what is forbidden and arousing himself by it.

Ibn Qayyim, Bada’ia Al-fawa’id [Wonders of the Benefits]
