It is narrated from Sayyiduna Miqdad bin Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me: "You ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the man who plays with his wife and because of this, the water of life does not come out from him, but madhi (pre-seminal fluid) does come out. If the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) were not my wife, I would have asked myself." So I said: "O Messenger of Allah! A man plays with his wife and the water of life does not come out from him, but madhi does come out?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Such a man should wash his private part and perform ablution for prayer."

(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Miqdad bin Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When any one of you encounters this thing, he should sprinkle water on his private part, that is, wash it, and perform the ablution for prayer."

(Third chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Miqdad bin Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When any one of you finds this thing, he should sprinkle water on his private part and perform the ablution for prayer." By sprinkling water on that place, what is meant is washing it.

Aish bin Anas Bakri (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him), and Sayyiduna Miqdad (may Allah be pleased with him) discussed the matter of madhi (pre-seminal fluid). Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I experience a lot of madhi and I feel shy to ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about it because his daughter is married to me." So he told either Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) or Sayyiduna Miqdad (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about it. Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Aish mentioned the name of one of them, but I have forgotten; in any case, they asked, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is madhi; he should wash it off." I asked: "Wash what?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "His private part, and he should perform ablution well and sprinkle water on his private part, that is, wash it."

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I used to scrape semen off the garment of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), then he (peace be upon him) would go and pray in that garment.

It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would clean the wet semen from his garment with a blade of izkhir grass and then pray in it, and he would scrape off the dry semen and pray in that garment.

Aswad bin Yazid (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) saw me washing the traces of janabah from my clothes. She said: "What is this?" I said: "It is janabah, which had gotten onto my clothes." She said: "I also observe myself that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would get janabah on his clothes, he would do nothing more than this." Mahdi (may Allah have mercy on him) described the manner by rubbing one hand over the other.

(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I used to scrape semen from the garment of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so when you see it, wash it off, and if you do not notice it, then sprinkle water on it.

Humam (may Allah have mercy on him) says: A guest stayed with Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her). She ordered a yellow sheet for him. He slept in it and had a wet dream in it. Now he was embarrassed to send the cloth back as it had traces of the wet dream, so he dipped the sheet in water and then sent it back. Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Why has he ruined our cloth? It would have been sufficient for him to scrape it off with his fingers." I would sometimes scrape it off the garment of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with my fingers.

A man from Banu Sawa' asked about the semen that flows during intercourse between husband and wife. Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pour water over the semen. (Musnad Ahmad: 25716)
