Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

 

In principle, what comes out during ejaculation is sperm which necessitates Ghusl (a ritual bath). It is recommended to also wash it out of the clothes. As for someone who is sure that Mathiy discharged prior to ejaculating sperm, then it is mandatory to wash it out of one’s clothes as it is impure.

For the difference between Mathiy and Maniy (sperm), please see Fatwa 82518.

For more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 83714.

Allaah Knows best.
