The question

Do clean clothes become impure when washed with clothes stained with madhy (pre-seminal fluid), taking into account the difference in fatwas regarding whether a small amount of madhy renders water impure, and must those clothes be washed again?

The answer

If pure clothes are washed with impure ones, and water comes into contact with the clothes without changing due to the impurity, the pure clothes do not become impure. However, if the clothes come into contact with water and the water is less than two qullas, it becomes impure according to the majority of scholars, even if it does not change, and thus the clothes that touch it become impure. Many scholars are of the view that water does not become impure except by changing, so if it does not change, whatever clothes come into contact with it do not become impure. The more cautious approach is to avoid letting impure clothes come into contact with a small amount of water.
