Answer
Evil dreams (including dreams about sex) are Shaytaani dreams.
Dreams are not within our Ikhtiyaar (choice). Therefore, it is not within us to avoid bad dreams. However, if one sees bad dreams, he/she should spit lightly and recite 'Laa Hawla Walaa Quwwata illaa billaah'. Thereafter, change one's direction of sleep. Insha Allah, the dream will not have any effect on the person.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
