Qatadah (Rahimahullah) said:
"One of Iblis's devils is called Qubqub. Iblis has ordered him to rest for forty years."
Whenever a youth enters this path (of righteousness), Iblis tells Qubqub: "There (s)he is, I have been preparing you for this type of youth. (Go!) Deceive and seduce him (to avert them from the right path)."
[Ibn at-Jawzee (Rahimahullah) in Dhamm al-Hawaa, 145]

Fluids That Come Out Of A Woman — Part III
If maniy (fluid emitted at the point of climax) comes out of a woman without intercourse, she has to do ghusl.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) commanded women to do ghusl if they notice water (fluid), as was reported by Maalik in al-Muwatta’ (1/51), and by al-Bukhaari (282) and al-Nasaa’i (1/114) from Umm Salamah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who said:
Umm Sulaim, the wife of Abu Talhah, came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said,
“O Messenger of Allaah, Allaah is not too shy to tell the truth. Does a woman have to do ghusl if she has an (erotic) dream?”
He (ṣall Allahu ʿalayhi wa-’ālihi wa-sallam) said, “Yes, if she sees water (fluid).”
In this hadeeth, he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) commanded women to do ghusl if they see water, i.e., maniy.
al-Baghawi said in Sharh al-Sunnah (2/9):
Ghusl for janaabah (impurity following sexual activity) is waajib (obligatory) if either of the following applies:
* either the tip of the penis penetrates the vagina, or
* the gushing liquid is emitted by the man or the woman.
The scholars said that ghusl does not become obligatory unless one is sure that what one feels of wetness comes from the gushing liquid.

Fluids That Come Out Of A Woman — Part IV
Ibn Qudaamah (Rahimahullah) said in al-Mughni (1/200): The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) connected doing ghusl to seeing (the fluid) when he said: “If you see the water and if the water gushed out , then do ghusl.” The ruling does not apply otherwise.
Ibn Hajar (Rahimahullah) said in al-Fath (1/389): This indicates that ghusl is obligatory for women, when they emit fluid at the point of climax.
Ibn Rajab (Rahimahullah) said in al-Fath (1/338): This hadeeth indicates that if a woman sees an (erotic) dream and notices the fluid when she wakes up, she has to do ghusl.
This was the view of the majority of scholars and no dissenting view is known except for that of an-Nakha’i, who is the odd one out.

Fluids that Come Out of a Woman — Part V
This hadeeth of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) makes the matter quite clear, which is that if any fluid is emitted by the woman – whether it is a little or a lot – then she has to do ghusl.
On the basis of the above, if a woman feels that some fluid has come out of her vagina, even if it is only a little, then she has to do ghusl, because of the report to that effect.
It is not sufficient for her to do wudoo’ in this case unless the fluid which was emitted was not the kind of fluid for which ghusl is required, such as madhiy (lubricating secretion) etc., in which case wudoo’ is sufficient.
And Allaah knows best.

Advice To Women Who Are Getting Married Part 1:
When ‘Awf ibn Muhallim al-Shaybani, one of the most highly respected leaders of the Arab nobility during the jahiliyyah (period of ignorance), married his daughter Umm Iyas to al-Harith ibn ‘Amr al-Kindi, she was made ready to be taken to the groom, then her mother Umamah came in to her, to advise her, and said:
O my daughter, if it were deemed unnecessary to give you this advice because of good manners and noble descent, then it would have been unnecessary for you, because you possess these qualities.
However, it is a reminder for the heedless (forgetful) and a useful tool for the intelligent (wise).

Advice To Women Who Are Getting Married Part 2:
O my daughter, if a woman were able to do without a husband by virtue of her parent's wealth and their great need for her, then you of all people would be most able to do without a husband,
but women were created for men just as men were created for them.
O my daughter, you are about to leave the home in which you grew up, where you first learned to walk, to go to a place you do not know, to a companion with whom you are unfamiliar.
He has become, by his authority (and right) over you, an overseer and a king.
So be a slave to him and he will be a willing servant to you.
