Making fardh ghusal after sehri
Q: As the month of Ramadhaan approaches, I would like to ask the following:
1. If a person goes to sleep and upon waking up for sehri, he notices he is in need for a compulsory ghusal due to a dream he had. Can that person eat sehri, START HIS FAST and thereafter have a ghusal before fajr?
2. Or should he have a ghusal before sehri? (What if there is a fear of missing sehri?)
3. If a person does have a ghusal AFTER sehri before fajr, ONCE HE STARTED HIS FAST, will his fast be accepted/valid?
A:
1. Yes.
2. He can delay the ghusl.
3. Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

قال: وإن أكل أو شرب أو جامع ناسيا ... أو أصبح جنبا لم يفطر (الاختيار لتعليل المختار 1/133)
