Is ghusl required for white madhiy that was discharged as a result of a wet dream, knowing that a woman's maniy is yellow?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a woman experiences a wet dream and sees thin, yellow fluid, she must perform ghusl (ritual purification bath). If she sees nothing, then ghusl is not obligatory for her. The fluid of a woman might be white due to the intensity of her strength. A woman's semen is identified by its discharge with pleasure (shahwa), by her desire intensifying afterward, and by its smell being similar to that of a man's semen. If the semen is distinguished by color or smell, ghusl becomes obligatory. If the smell is not distinct, but she remembers the wet dream, then it is safer (more precautionary) to perform ghusl.
