Wet dreams and pre-seminal fluid during the day in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, what is the ruling for a man who finds himself having a wet dream during the day in Ramadan? Does he have to repeat his fast? Does he owe a ransom payment? Does he bear any sin? And what about the pre-seminal fluid?

Answer:
He owes nothing. The one who has a wet dream and semen comes out of him due to the wet dream owes nothing except to perform the full ritual bath, and his fast is valid, because this is without his choice, without his choice. As for the pre-seminal fluid, its discharge does not invalidate the fast. Yes, but he has to avoid the things that arouse him, because he fears that something that invalidates his fast, namely semen, will come out of him. Yes, so he avoids the arousing things, whether they are things seen or heard, or things that arouse his desire. Yes.
