When is it obligatory to wash the penis, and is it obligatory to wash the testicles, knowing that pre-seminal fluid (madhy) is discharged easily and continues to flow for about an hour, and may be discharged again upon touching the testicles to wash them?
If the madhy (pre-seminal fluid) stops for a sufficient period to perform wudu (ablution) and prayer, then one must wait for it to stop, then purify oneself and pray. If it does not stop, then one performs wudu for each prayer after its time has begun, washes the affected area, and binds it, and whatever comes out after that does not harm him. In the case of the questioner, he must wait for the madhy to stop, then wash the penis and any part of the body affected by the madhy, sprinkle water on any part of the garment affected, then perform wudu and pray. Washing the penis from madhy is only obligatory when one intends to perform an act that requires ritual purity from minor impurity, after it has ceased. Washing the testicles from madhy is not obligatory according to the majority of scholars.
