What is the ruling on madhy (pre-seminal fluid) that gets on clothes and is not easily removed by abundant water?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The person afflicted with waswas (obsessive doubts) should sprinkle water on the garment affected by madhy (pre-seminal fluid). Sprinkling is done by taking a handful of water and splashing it on the spot of impurity without needing to rub or wring it. Ibn Uthaymeen said regarding the purification of madhy: "He should sprinkle water on it and pour water over it until it is saturated, without wringing or rubbing it."
