What is the ruling on the fast of one who had a wet dream, thinking it was pre-seminal fluid (madhy), but it turned out to be seminal fluid (maniy)?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The fast is valid, and purity from ritual impurity () is not a condition for its validity. As for the wetness after waking up, if the questioner is certain it is semen, then a ritual bath () is obligatory. If he is certain it is not semen, then a ghusl is not obligatory. If he is unsure whether it is semen or not, then there is a detailed explanation.
