The question

What type of fluid — in terms of its viscosity and transparency — exits after urination? Is it madhy (pre-ejaculatory fluid) or wady (thick, white fluid that exits after urination)? What is the ruling on washing the penis and testicles from it, or is it sufficient to pour water on the tip of the penis to remove the impurity? Does this fluid fall under the category of سلس المذي (incontinence of madhy) or الودي (incontinence of wady)?

The answer

If a fluid exits after urination and without desire, it is "wady," which is a thick, white fluid that exits after urination. Its ruling is the same as that of urine regarding impurity and invalidating ablution. This is not considered continuous discharge (sals) unless its flow is constant, such that it does not stop for a sufficient period for purification and prayer. If it does stop, the one performing ablution must wait until it ceases. The questioner may follow the Maliki school of thought on this issue, while being careful not to fall into obsessive doubts (waswasah).
