AL-KAFI #1797: HUKUM AIR MAZI DARI SUAMI ISTERI KETIKA PROSES PERSETUBUHAN
What is the ruling on madhi (prostatic fluid) emitted by a husband or wife during intercourse, and what if it touches the mattress, pillow or blanket?
Short answer
Madhi is a moderate impurity (najis mutawassitah) that must be washed with pure water until its smell, taste and colour are gone when it touches the hands, clothing or similar items.

Summary
Madhi is a moderate impurity (najis mutawassitah) that must be washed with pure water until its smell, taste and colour are gone when it touches the hands, clothing or similar items. The same obligation applies to bedding that is touched by it. If the amount is small and hard to avoid, such as on a mattress or pillow, it is excused. If the amount is large, it must be cleaned.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, air mazi yang keluar adalah najis. Apabila terkena pada pakaian, selimut atau seumpamanya maka wajib dibersihkan.
