Summary
Madhy is a clear fluid released during arousal and is considered impure. A person with continuous madhy must clean the private area and cover or bandage it to hold back the discharge, then perform ablution after the prayer time has begun. Ablution is renewed for each obligatory prayer with a fresh covering, and the prayer should be performed promptly after ablution. The same method applies to those with urinary incontinence and women with istihadah bleeding.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Hendaklah berwuduk bagi setiap solat fardu. Walau bagaimanapun, wuduk tersebut boleh digunakan untuk beberapa solat sunat selepas solat fardu.
