Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Umm Sulaym said that she asked the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) about a woman who sees in a dream what a man sees (a wet dream).

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "If the woman sees that, she must take a ritual bath." Umm Sulaym said: "I was bashful on account of that and said: 'Does that happen?'" Upon this, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes (it does happen), otherwise where does resemblance come from?

Man's discharge (i. e. semen) is thick and white, and the discharge (vaginal fluid) of a woman is thin and yellow, and the resemblance (of the child) comes from the one that dominates or precedes."

Source textOriginal Arabic
عن أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه : أن أم سُلَيم حدَّثَت أنَّها سألت نَبِي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عن المرأة تَرى في مَنَامِها ما يَرى الرَّجل، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «إذا رَأَت ذلك المرأة فَلْتَغْتَسِل» فقالت أم سُلَيْم: واسْتَحْيَيْتُ من ذلك، قالت: وهل يَكون هذا؟ فقال نَبِي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «نعم، فمِن أين يَكُون الشَّبَه؟ إنَّ ماء الرَّجُل غَليِظ أبْيَض، وماء المرأة رقِيق أصْفَر، فَمِنْ أَيِّهِمَا عَلَا، أو سَبَقَ، يَكُونُ مِنْه الشَّبَهُ».
