When does a boy become baaligh
Question
I have two questions.
1. What are the signs of buloogh (puberty) in a boy?
2. I know a 14 year old boy who masturbated and a thick white fluid came out, would he be counted as baaligh?
Answer
1. When he experiences a wet dream.
2. Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
