A Wet Dream With No Discharge

· 5 Rajab 1443 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

but I wanted to find out 2 things the first is that if one has a wet dream and nothing comes out then does one need to have a gusl bath similarly if maybe during the day that one or two drops comes out then should one have a gusl or not.

Answer

If a person experiences a wet dream but finds no wetness then it is not obligatory upon him to take Ghusl.

If a drop or two of semen emerged after awaking or during the day and one is certain that it is semen which has emerged as result of experiencing a wet dream, then Ghusl will be obligatory.

احتلم ليلا ثم استيقظ ولم ير بللا فتوضا وصلى صلاة الفجر ثم نزل المني يجب عليه الغسل كذا في الذخيرة

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.”
