Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said that I suffered from excessive discharge of madhiy.

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I used to suffer from excessive discharge of madhiy (pre-seminal fluid). I told a man, and he asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about its ruling. He said: "Only wudu (ablution) is obligatory due to madhiy."

He is Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him). And shall I tell you who is the best person in this Ummah after Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him)? He is Sayyiduna Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him).
