How does one know whether he has had a wet dream or not? I am 15 years old and I have very heavy sleep, so sometimes I suspect that something might have happened, but I'm not sure. How does one confirm whther he needs to make ghusl? And if there is a suspicion, should I still make gusl again?
Answer :
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Generally there are two emissions [wetness] a person may observe on awakening which will render Ghusl Wajib.
1. Mani or sperm:
An emission of a thick white fluid normally at the time of intercourse or at the time of a wetdream.
2. Mazi or pre-coital fluid:
An emission of a thin white fluid before intercourse at the time of foreplay.
