The semen of a woman is yellowish and thin, and it exits accompanied by intense desire and pleasure, followed by a weakening. It has a distinct odor and necessitates ghusl (ritual bath). As for other discharges, they are not semen and do not necessitate ghusl, but they are impure and necessitate istinja’ (cleaning oneself after urinating or defecating). The sister who asked the question must be cautious of opening a door for conversation with the mentioned man and avoid him, threatening him with a complaint to the responsible authorities if he continues to harass her.
