Bayhaqi 799 — Madhi and wadi do not make ghusl obligatory

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا قُتَيْبَةُ، ثنا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنِ الرُّكَيْنِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ، عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ قَبِيصَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ رَجُلًا مَذَّاءً فَجَعَلْتُ أَغْتَسِلُ حَتَّى تَشَقَّقَ ظَهْرِي، قَالَ: فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ ذُكِرَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا تَفْعَلْ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الْمَذْيَ فَاغْسِلْ ذَكَرَكَ، وَتَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءَكَ لِلصَّلَاةِ، فَإِذَا نَضَحْتَ الْمَاءَ فَاغْتَسِلْ ".
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I used to have a great deal of madhi (pre-seminal fluid), and I would take a ritual bath until my back became sore. The narrator says: I mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), or it was mentioned to him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not do that. When you see madhi, wash your private part and perform ablution as you do for prayer; and when the water gushes forth (that is, semen is discharged), take a ritual bath."
