What is the ruling on madhy (pre-seminal fluid) exiting due to a sudden erection, unrelated to thought or sight, knowing that this occurs frequently? And what are the implications of its exit in terms of ablution and verifying its discharge? Is it permissible to squeeze the penis to ascertain its exit?

Madhiy (pre-seminal fluid) invalidates wudu’ (ablution), and it must be removed, and wudu’ must be redone if its presence is certain. However, a person is not required to go to great lengths to search for its presence merely based on doubts, because certainty is not removed by doubt.
