Does rapid arousal, which leads to a slight erection of the penis, necessitate redoing ablution for every prayer?

Our advice to you is, first, to distance yourself from everything that incites your desires, and to hasten to marry if possible; otherwise, increase your fasting. The arousal of desire or an erection does not nullify ablution unless something is emitted from it. However, if the arousal of desire is accompanied by the emission of prostatic fluid (madhiy), then ablution is nullified thereby, and it is obligatory to perform istinja (washing the private parts), wash the penis, and purify the body and clothing from whatever madhiy has soiled them.
