Is ghusl sufficient for the discharge of madhy, or is wudu' required after ghusl, and is one wudu' sufficient for the discharge of madhy and prayer?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Pure water is sufficient for removing both minor and major ritual impurity. Wudu (ablution) is included in ghusl (ritual bath). So, if a person performing ghusl invalidates their ablution during the ghusl, they must repeat wudu after completing the ghusl. As for madhy (pre-seminal fluid), it does not require a special wudu, but it does invalidate wudu. Wudu is only obligatory due to it if you intend to pray. A single wudu is sufficient for all instances of impurity.
