Mani Madhi gusl
Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,
As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa
Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked
this question:
I want to ask if a little sperm is expelled out...should
We still take a bath
(There may be some grammatical and spelling
errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from

Answer:
Mani
Madhi gusl
In the name of Allah, We praise
Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none
can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.
We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam,
no dai, nobody!) worthy of
worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His
slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Fiqh-us-Sunnah Fiqh
1.10
Wadi is a thick white secretion
discharged (by some people) after urination. It is considered impure. Aishah said, " Wadi comes out after
urination. The person should wash the private parts and perform ablution. It is not necessary to perform ghusl. This
is related by Ibn al-Mundhir. Ibn
'Abbas related that "mani (ejaculation or full sexual discharge) requires
ghusl. As for madhi (prostatic fluid
or initial sexual discharge) and wadi they require a complete
purification." This is related by
al-Athram. Al-Baihaqi has it with the
wording, "Concerning madhi and wadi, he said, 'Wash your sexual organs
and perform the same type of ablution as you perform for prayer."'
Other than urine, there are
basically three types of discharges that are released from ones private
organs:
- Wadi (a thick white secretion immediately
after uniration by some people)
- Madhi (a sort of slow release of lubricant
just prior to a full sexual discharge)
- Mani (a full sexual discharge)
If only Wadi or Madhi is released, one does not require a ghusl or full bath to purify himself; he must wash his private parts and the part of his clothes or body where the wadi or madhi has touched, do the wudu, and he would be available for prayer.
If Mani is released, then it
become obligatory to perform a ghusl or full bath to purify oneself.
Whatever written of Truth and
benefit is only due to Allahs Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error
is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He
is the Only Source of Strength.
Your Brother in Islam,
Burhan
