The answer

Scholars have differed concerning the ruling on vaginal discharge, but the preponderant opinion is that it is pure (tahir), yet it invalidates ablution (wudu’), unless it is continuous. If it is continuous, it does not invalidate ablution, but the woman must perform ablution for each prayer after its time has begun and take precautions (use a protective barrier), while performing all obligatory and supererogatory prayers and reciting the Qur’an during this time. However, if it is intermittent and stops at prayer times, she should delay the prayer until it stops, as long as she does not fear the time will expire. If she does fear the time will expire, she should perform ablution, take precautions, and pray. There is no difference between a little or a lot of it.
