Musnad Ahmad 23825

Translation

✧ Ali, Ammar, and Miqdad were discussing pre-seminal fluid. Ali said, “I am a man who emits pre-seminal fluid frequently, and I am too shy to ask him because his daughter is my wife.” He said to one of the two—to Ammar or to Miqdad—Ata said: A’ish named him for me but I forgot—ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So I asked him, and he said, “That is pre-seminal fluid. He should wash that part from it.” I said, “What is that part from it?” He said, “His penis. Then he should perform ablution and do it well, or perform ablution like his ablution for prayer, and sprinkle water on his private part—or wash his private part.”
