Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I am unable to distinguish between the fluid of madhi (pre-seminal fluid) and the fluid of mani (semen) when I wake up from sleep. What should I do? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If you wake up from sleep and find moisture on your garment or on your body, you are required to perform the full ritual bath, even if you do not know what it is, because you did not distinguish while you were sleeping; you did not distinguish between this and that. Therefore, as soon as the moisture is present, you are required to fast, even if you do not know whether it is pre-seminal fluid or semen? Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you, and may He make Islam and the Muslims benefit from you. The questions related to this topic have ended. If you wish, we will then present some other questions.
