· 6 Rajab 1424 AH1 min readFatwa 9563English

Question

I had a wet dream and think that my mattress also got soiled because I was sleeping on my stomach. Does the entire mattress become napaak or just the area that I think got soiled?

Answer

If there is any trace of impurity on the mattress, then only the impurity has to be washed out. However, if there is no trace of impurity, the mattress will be regarded as clean. (Ashbaah pg.188)

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.”
