Discharging pre-seminal fluid due to desire during the day of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does discharging pre-seminal fluid during the day of Ramadan due to desire invalidate the fast?

The Shaykh:
What are we returning to?

The questioner:
Pre-seminal fluid, pre-seminal fluid, yes.

The Shaykh:
Specifically.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
If it is intentional, it invalidates the fast because it is a desire, and Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says in the Qudsi Hadith that he left
his desires and his food and drink for My sakeشَهْوَتَهُ وَطَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِي
Muwatta Malik 18:64
. So if pre-seminal fluid comes out of him because of desire, whether from looking or touching, it invalidates his fast. But if pre-seminal fluid comes out of him without a cause, no, it does not invalidate his fast.
