The answer

Waswasa (obsessive whispering) is a disease that must be shunned. Vaginal discharges are of several types: vaginal moisture (rotubat al-farj) is pure but nullifies ablution, madhi (pre-seminal fluid) is impure and necessitates ablution, and maniy (seminal fluid) is pure but necessitates (ritual bath). When in doubt between maniy and madhi, a person has a choice. If the discharges are continuous ( سلس - sals), one performs ablution for each prayer after its time has begun. Abandoning prayer is a grave sin, and one must repent from it and make up for the missed prayers, according to the preponderant opinion of scholars.
