حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ صَالِحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْحَرَامِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَمَّا يُوجِبُ الْغُسْلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَنِ الْمَاءِ يَكُونَ بَعْدَ الْمَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ذَاكَ الْمَذْيُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكُلُّ فَحْلٍ يَمْذِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَغْسِلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَرْجَكَ وَأُنْثَيَيْكَ وَتَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءَكَ لِلصَّلَاةِ .

I asked the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم as to what makes it necessary to take a bath and about the (prostatic) fluid that flows after taking a bath. He replied: that is called madhi (prostatic fluid). It flows from every male. You should wash your private parts and testicles because of it and perform ablution as you do for prayer.
