Can semen be mucoid and viscous, or be emitted with a quick minor urge?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The woman's manī (seminal fluid) is a thin, yellow fluid that is discharged with arousal when it intensifies. Its smell resembles that of a man's manī. It necessitates ghusl (ritual bath) if its discharge with these characteristics is confirmed. As for the fluid discharged when thinking about intercourse, it is madhī (pre-seminal fluid) and does not necessitate ghusl. If there is doubt about the discharge, the woman may choose and assign it the ruling of one of the two fluids.
