Discharge of seminal fluid after Ghusl
Question
After conjugal relations or after experiencing a wetdream, a person performs Ghusal. Thereafter, a few drops of semen comes out. Does this mean that the Ghusal has to be repeated?
Answer
In principle, if a person performs Ghusal after having conjugal relations or after experiencing a wet dream (Ihtilaam) and thereafter a few drops of seminal fluid (Mani) came out from the private parts, then if it occurred after walking; or after urinating; or sleeping, it will not be necessary to repeat the Ghusal. In such a case, it will be necessary to repeat the Wudhu.
However, if the few drops of seminal fluid (Mani) came out from the private parts before walking; or before urinating; or sleeping, then it will be necessary to repeat the Ghusal. (Hindiyyah 1/14)
