Q: I have some questions about fasting. Could you please answer them when you have time in shaa Allah? Water drops/discharges/intentions

1. If you wake up during fasting having a wet dream, does it break you fast?

2. If you accidentally (remembering you are fasting or not remembering) got a drop or two of water in your throat does it break your fast? Does number of drops matter, one, two, etc?

3. If a drop or two entered your ear during ghusl accidentally (remembering about fasting or not) does it break your fast? Does amount of drops matter, one, two, etc?

4. During fasting is it allowed to make only fard ghusl: washing private parts, mouth, nose (not deep), and then 3 times head, 3 times right part of your body (by left hand), 3 times left part of your body (by right hand)? How important it is to make sure that all skin gets wet during it, I mean from neck till feet, underarm, etc or pouring water 3 times is just symbolic and no need to make sure you all get wet during the process and then we can just wash ourselves as we normally do, using shampoo, soap etc? Is it ok the way I described?

5. if I didn’t repay my kazas for current Ramadan and do it only after next Ramadan, do I have to pay some money for each day? Is the ruling the same if I wasn’t in time due to something that doesn’t depend on me or due to me delaying it deliberately?
