The answer

Mere apprehension of seminal emission does not invalidate the fast nor necessitate ghusl (ritual bath), because a mere feeling of arousal or the occurrence of desire does not entail anything. The fundamental principle is that the fast is not invalidated except by certainty of that which invalidates it.
