The Effect of the Discharge of Pre-seminal Fluid and Nocturnal Emission on the Fasting of the Fasting Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
What is the ruling on the discharge of pre-seminal fluid for the fasting person, whether it occurs through looking or through direct contact?
The Shaykh:
Pre-seminal fluid does not break the fast; the correct view is that it does not break the fast, whether one looks or not. Some scholars said that it breaks the fast like semen, but the correct view is that it does not break the fast. One should clean oneself, wash his private parts and the tips of his fingers, and perform the ablution for prayer if he intends to pray, perform tawaf, or touch the mushaf.
Another questioner:
People have wronged me.
The Shaykh:
For the mother of the believers, the fast is not invalidated by an obligation.
Another questioner:
The result of a dream. Yes.
The Shaykh:
If it is understanding, no.
Another questioner:
And it is, yes.
The Shaykh:
The meaning of inheritance, nocturnal emission is by one’s desire. He performs the full ritual bath, he performs the full ritual bath and there is no return, his fast is valid. If a fasting person has a nocturnal emission at dawn or at midday, his fast is valid, because nocturnal emission is by the skin, it is not by your choice. Yes.
