What is the description of a woman's maniy, and is it different from her madhy?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
A woman's maniy (seminal fluid) is thin and yellow, just as a man's fluid is thick and white. The maniy smells like palm spathe or dough, and it is discharged with desire and pleasure, followed by relaxation. As for madhiy (pre-seminal fluid), it is a thin, clear, sticky fluid that is discharged when there is desire, but not with desire or gushing, and it is not followed by relaxation. Both men and women discharge it.
