Is intentional wet dreaming forbidden, and to what extent does this prohibition extend?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A wet dream is when a sleeping person sees themselves engaging in sexual intercourse. It cannot be intentional because what a sleeping person sees cannot be described as deliberate. Perhaps what is meant by "intentional wet dream" in the question is masturbation.
