Hazrat Ata narrates that during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, a man had a wet dream and there were boils and sores on his body. The people made him perform ghusl (ritual bath), and as a result, he passed away. When this matter reached the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, he said, "They have ruined him, may Allah ruin them; they have killed him, may Allah kill them."
