Can I offer namaz in underwear with wet stains?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I want to know that sometime when my penis gets harder the water comes from it and by what sometimes my underwear get wet by it with stains there some spots left on underwear so can I offer namaz in that underwear or I have to change that for namaz?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

(Fatwa: 766/744/N=7/1438)

The leaking out at the time of erection is usually the madhi, not semen i.e. it is white, clear, glittering, creamy and adhesive substance which is discharged in lust, but does not satisfy the lust rather increases it and it is not thick like the turbid colour semen which is discharged with jerk in the last stage of lust and terminates the lust and the erection and hardness of the penis gets lost. In case only madhi is discharged then it only breaks the wudhu, but does not make ghusl mandatory. However, the madhi is also impure like urine. Thus, the part of the underwear where it is smeared shall turn impure and it shall be necessary to wash it. But if its total expansion is more than the size of one coin then salah shall not be valid without washing it, and in case it is equal to one coin or less than it then salah shall be valid but with karahat. However, it is better to wash it. It is not good to offer salah while carrying impurity of this quantity.

لا عند مذي أو ودي؛ بل الوضوء منه ومن البول جميعًا على الظاهر (الدر المختار مع رد المحتار 1/304 ، ط: مكتبة زكريا ديوبند) ، قوله: “بل الوضوء منه الخ”: أي بل يجب الوضوء منه ، أي من الودي ومن البول جميعاً (رد المحتار) وأجمع العلماء أنه لا يجب الغسل بخروج المذي والودي كذا فى شرح المهذب (البحر الرائق : 1/ 115، ط: مكتبة زكريا ديوبند) ، وعفا الشارع عن قدر درهم …….وهومثقال عشرون قيراطًا في نجس كثيف له جرم وعرض مقعر الكف ، ……في رقيق من مغلظة كعذرة آدمي ، وكذا كل ما خرج منه موجبا لوضوء أو غسل مغلظ الخ (الدر المختار مع رد المحتار ، كتاب الطهارة ، باب الأنجاس، 1: 520-523)، والأقرب أن غسل الدرهم وما دونه مستحب مع العلم به والقدرة على غسله فتركه حينئذ خلاف الأولى، نعم الدرهم غسله آكد فتركه أشد كراهة كما يستفاد من غير ما كتاب من مشاهیر كتب المذهب الخ . (رد المحتار ، 1: 520-521).
