Question

What should a woman do when she wakes up and finds some fluid but unable to determine whether its mazi or mani? She does not recall any wet dream but remembers other dream which she saw during sleep. However before sleeping there were sexual thoughts but the fluid that was secreted at that particular time was properly washed up. In these circumstances, does the ghusl become obligatory? One more thing, is it compulsory to wash hair every time to purify myself because at times I daily experience the above stated problem but you know daily washing of hair can damage them? In this condition can I just wash my body to attain purity?

Answer

In principle, if one has a doubt regarding the fluid being Mani or Mazi after having seen a dream, then Ghusl is compulsory.

It is necessary to wash all your hair each time Ghusl is necessary.

What should I do after a wet dream?

“A wet dream is an erotic dream that causes involuntary ejaculation of semen. A dream where one is seen masturbating is not necessarily a wet dream, even though one finds some degree of excitement on awakening.”
