Question

Asalamualaikum, I am a female and I always see some discharge after waking up from my sleep, and also when I am awake. I am unable to differentiate between this discharge and mani. Does this mean that I have to do ghusl every time I wake up because I may have had a wet dream but can not differentiate between the discharge?

Answer

Wa ʿAlaykumus Salām Wa Raḥmatullāhi Wa Barakātuh

In the case where one has doubts regarding such discharge being semen or not, then irrespective of whether a wet dream had occurred or not, Ghusl will be obligatory.
