Is water splashed onto clothing after ablution considered impure if it mixes with secretions presumed to be from the vagina?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Scholars have differed concerning the ritual purity of discharges emitted by women. The preponderant opinion, according to us, is that discharges exiting from the birth canal are pure in all cases, whereas those exiting from the urinary tract are impure. Both, however, nullify ablution.
Therefore, vaginal discharges are pure according to the preponderant opinion. However, if they mix with urine, they become impure, and it is obligatory to cleanse them from clothes or the body.
