Does clitoral swelling and profuse discharge after quitting masturbation affect ritual purity (tahara)?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The emission of these discharges invalidates ablution (wudu'), but they are pure and do not necessitate ritual washing (istinja'), only ablution. Full ritual bathing (ghusl) is only required upon the emission of semen, which necessitates it.
