3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ’Udhaynah from Burayd ibn Mu‘awiyah who has said the following
“I once asked one of the two Imams, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, about al-Madhiy (certain secreted lubricant from urethra). He (the Imam) said, ‘It does not invalidate Wudu’ and it is not necessary to wash one’s clothes or body. It is only like nasal mucus and saliva.’”
3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَحَدَهُمَا (عَلَيْهِما الْسَّلام) عَنِ الْمَذْيِ فَقَالَ لاَ يَنْقُضُ الْوُضُوءَ وَلاَ يُغْسَلُ مِنْهُ ثَوْبٌ وَلاَ جَسَدٌ إِنَّمَا هُوَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْمُخَاطِ وَالْبُزَاقِ.
