If what the questioner sees in her sleep is meant, then the sleeping person is not held accountable for what emanates from them while asleep, due to the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "The pen has been lifted from three: from the sleeper until he awakens..." It is advised to maintain regular remembrance (). If a woman experiences a wet dream and semen is discharged, ritual bathing () becomes obligatory, due to his (peace be upon him) saying: "Yes, if she sees the water."
