وروى مسلم من حديث محمد بن الحنفية عن على رضى الله عنه (أنه) قال: استحييت أن أسأل رسول الله صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم عن المذي من أجل فاطمة، فأمرت المقداد فسأله، فقال: ((منه الوضوء))
Muslim narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, who narrated from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: “I was too shy to ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about madhi because of Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), so I told al-Miqdad to ask him, and he said: ‘Wudu is required from it.'”
Tahqiq wa Takhrij: Bukhari: 178, 132; Muslim: 303
وعنده فى رواية عن ابن عباس، عن على فيها: ((توضأ وانضح فرجك))
According to Muslim, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Abbas, it is narrated from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding this matter that he said: “Perform wudu and sprinkle water on your private part.”
Tahqiq wa Takhrij: Muslim: 303, through the chain of Sulayman ibn Yasar.
Benefits:
➊ Performing wudu is necessary when madhi comes out. This hadith also establishes that after wudu, water should be sprinkled on the shalwar, sheet, etc. Because sometimes drops of urine or sticky fluid come out due to heat, or madhi drops fall on clothing.
➋ The emergence of madhi is not a bad thing. It is a sticky fluid that is discharged before semen, which is a sign of desire, and it is thinner than semen.
➌ There is no shame in religion; every matter may be asked about. If there is a situation where asking a question is a cause of embarrassment, then the solution may be sought by asking through another person, as Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) felt shy because of Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) to ask the Prophet ﷺ about madhi. Modesty did not permit him to ask his own wife’s father.
