This study examines the jurisprudential ruling on madhyy (pre-ejaculatory fluid), focusing on whether it is pure or impure and its implications for worship, particularly prayer. Given the frequent occurrence of madhyy, the issue has significant practical importance in alleviating hardship and facilitating religious practice. Using an inductive-analytical approach, the research surveys Qur’anic and Prophetic texts, juristic opinions and evidences, and relevant medical findings to clarify the nature and source of madhyy. The study finds that madhyy differs from maniy (semen) and wadiy in characteristics and rulings, though it shares some features with maniy. Both madhyy and maniy originate from the reproductive system, not the urinary tract. Since semen is deemed pure, madhyy is likewise pure. Authentic texts require ablution and washing the private parts upon its emission but do not explicitly declare it impure. The study thus favors the view that madhyy is pure, while ablution remains obligatory.
