What is the evidence for considering everything that exits from the two private parts (the anus and the urethra) as invalidating ablution, despite the phrase "what exits from the two private parts" not being a Hadeeth, with this being used as evidence for the invalidation of ablution by vaginal discharge, yellowish discharge, and brownish discharge during a period of purity, given the absence of a clear text ordering women to perform ablution due to vaginal discharge? And is it permissible for a woman not to perform ablution from it if there is insufficient time for prayer?

Scholars are in agreement that habitual discharge from either of the two private parts invalidates ablution (wudu’). They differed concerning unusual discharge. The of the four Imams is that moisture invalidates ablution, and this is what the majority of scholars have adopted. The prayer time for a sleeping person begins from the moment he wakes up.
