Is a woman's water pure or impure?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The fluid that exits a woman's private parts is of three types:

1. That which exits the urinary tract: It is impure (najis) and nullifies ablution (wudu'). 2. Vaginal discharge: It is pure (tahir) but nullifies ablution (wudu'). 3. Semen (mani): It is pure (tahir) according to the more sound of the two scholarly opinions, and it nullifies ablution (wudu') and necessitates a ritual bath (ghusl).
