Are the solidified drops found by a person on their clothes after waking up madhiy, based on the fact that semen (mani) comes in a large quantity while madhiy comes in drops?

Ghusl becomes obligatory immediately upon the emission of semen, even if it is a small amount. Al-Nawawi stated that scholars are in agreement regarding the obligation of ghusl upon the emission of semen, whether it is a large or small amount. There is no difference whether its emission occurred through intercourse, a wet dream, masturbation, or looking. The presence of solidified drops on the garment is evidence of semen emission because it is thick and its substance remains after it dries, unlike madhy (pre-seminal fluid).
