The answer

The statement that a woman's vaginal discharge does not invalidate ablution contradicts the general consensus of scholars, and only Ibn Hazm held this view. Jurists consider vaginal discharge to be white water, whereas maniy (semen) and madhiy (pre-seminal fluid) may be yellowish. Therefore, it is necessary to differentiate between vaginal discharge and madhiy. Madhiy is impure by scholarly consensus, and whoever suffers from incontinence should act according to the rulings mentioned in the fatwas concerning madhiy and maniy incontinence.
