Is Fajr prayer and reciting the Qur’an valid after a wet dream and before ghusl (ritual bathing)?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The questioner made a mistake in her prayers and her recitation of the Quran while in a state of ritual impurity (). She was correct in performing the ritual bath () and repeating the Fajr prayer due to its invalidity. The prohibition of reciting the Quran while in a state of janabah is a fundamental principle, but she is not sinful for her ignorance in this matter because its ruling might be unknown to the general public.
