Do wet dreams break one’s fast?

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Amjad Rasheed

Do wet dreams break one’s fast?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Sperm that exits because of wet dreams does not break one’s fast.

But what does break one’s fast is when sperms exits because of stimulation, whether this stimulation is haram, such as masturbating, or whether it is permissible, such as what is done by the hand of one’s wife. Also, one’s fast is broken by sperm exiting after foreplay, such as kissing and touching.

[Translated by Sr. Shazia Ahmad]

السؤال : هل يبطل الصومُ بالاحتلام ؟ الجواب : لا يَبطل الصومُ بنـزول المني بالاحتلام ، ولكن الذي يُبطل الصومَ هو خروجُ المني بالاستمناء سواءٌ كان الاستمناء محرماً كمن يفعلُه بيدِ نفسه أو مباحاً كالمفعول بيد زوجته . وكذلك يبطل بنـزول المني إثر مداعبة كتقبيل وملامسة .
