Is it valid to consider the thick white discharge resembling wady, which is not confirmed to have exited after urination or slightly before it, as normal and pure discharge?
If a woman sees al-wady, she must cleanse herself (istinjāʾ) from it and wash whatever part of her clothes and body it has soiled, regardless of whether it exited before or after urination. If she is unsure whether it is al-wady or normal discharge, she has the option [to consider it either]. However, if she is certain that it exited from the urinary opening, then it is impure and necessitates purification and wuḍūʾ (ablution). If she is unsure whether it soiled her clothes or not, she should act upon the original presumption, which is the continuity of purity. One must beware of obsessive thoughts (wasāwis) and turn away from them.
