Fluid emerging after relieving oneself

· 13 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1443 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

A person suffers from a sickness. Due to constipation, when passing stool, there is a fluid that emerges from the prostate. According to a Muslim doctor, this is prostate fluid and not sperm. Would it be necessary to make Ghusl when the said fluid emerges?

Answer

We assume that the prostate fluid mentioned in the query is a thin fluid that emerges after urinating. This fluid according to the Fuqaha is referred to as ‘Wadi.’ One is simply required to make Wudhu if ‘Wadi’ emerges. Ghusl will not be necessary.
