Removing the dried pre-ejaculatory fluid from clothes
Is it obligatory to wash a garment if it is smeared with the pre-ejaculatory fluid, particularly if the garment became dry? Is every dry element considered clean, including the dried traces of urine? May Allaah Reward you best.
It is impure, and therefore the body has to be washed if smudged with it, whether dried or not. As for the smudged clothes, one can splash water over the garment which is stained with it. As evidence, To splash is to cover the areas with water, even if without dripping. Dryness of impurity is not enough to consider the stained garment pure. This is according to the majority of scholars including the Hanafi scholars who said that earth as well as walls and trees become clean by means of dryness and absence of the traces of the impure element. But the majority from among the Maaliki, Shaafi‘i and Hanbali scholars are of the opinion that earth does not become clean by means of dryness. Therefore, clothes have to be washed with water if smeared with the pre-ejaculatory fluid or urine, even if it became dry. Allaah Knows best.
