Not finding impurity on one's clothing after seeing a dream

· 14 Dhuʻl-Qiʻdah 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If a person has sexual thoughts in his dream but upon waking up cannot see any form of impurity nor feel any kind of wetness nor does he with certainty remember ejaculating whilst asleep, would this mean that the person does not need to do a ghusl and that he is still in a 'paak' state?

Answer

He does not need to take a ghusl.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
