DOES WET DREAMS INVALIDATE THE FAST?

DOES WET DREAMS INVALIDATE THE FAST?

 Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.
If you experience a wet dream, it does not affect the validity of your fast. Your fast is broken only if you ejaculate because of deliberate action or thinking on your part. Since you have no control over your dreams while sleeping, it does not affect the validity of your fast. 
This is a matter that is beyond a person’s control, and we cannot prevent it. Allaah says; “Allaah burdens not a person beyond his scope”[al-Baqarah 2:286].
However, let me hasten to indicate that you ought to do ghusl (bath) in order to be entitled to perform salah (in case of a wet dream). This is one of the things that Allaah has created in human nature for men and women alike. Hence it was narrated from Umm Salamah, one of our mothers, the Mother of the Believers that: “Umm Sulaym the wife of Abu Talhah came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, verily Allaah is not shy of (telling you) the truth. Is it necessary for a woman to take a bath (ghusl) after she has a wet dream?’ The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, ‘Yes, if she notices a discharge.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, al-Ghusl, 373; Muslim, al-Hayd, 471). You can ask any questions but allow me more time to respond please. May Allah accept our little efforts and forgive our shortcomings. Aameen. Unfortunately I'm not able to respond to all personal prayers sent to me so I say Aameen to all Dua to me and I always pray for Allah to respond back for whoever remember me in dua so be rest assured that your dua is on my list of Dua to Allah. May Allah have mercy on us all. Aameen.
