Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu 'n Nadr, the mawla of Abdullah ibn Ubaydullah, from Sulayman ibn Yasar from alMiqdad ibn al- Aswad that Ali ibn Abi Talib told him to ask the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) what a man should do, who, when close to his wife, had a flow of prostatic fluid. Ali explained that the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was living with him then and he was too shy to ask for himself. Al-Miqdad said, "I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it, and he said, 'When you find that, wash your genitals with water and do wudu as for prayer.' "
