Leading the Salaah if one is not sure if one is baaligh
Question
I am Islamically 14 and not sure if I am baaligh. I have released mazi and probably wadhi but not mani. Am I baaligh and can I perform Salaah as an Imaam?
Answer
If you are not clear about being baaligh then I suggest that you wait for another year until you are fifteen according to the lunar calendar and then you may lead the namaaz.
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.
