Does women’s secretion break wudu and is it najis in the Maliki school?

In Mukhtasar Khalil it mentions in the chapter of impurities that wetness of the vagina is an impurity. This can be found in the commentaries of Dardir and Hattab. Furthermore, Qadi Abd al-Wahab mentions in his famous work Al-Talqin that everything that comes out of the vagina is an impurity.

Researching the matter, I find that the scholars never mention that it nullifies wudu. In the chapter concerning what nullifies wudu, wetness of the vagina is not one of those six things that come from a person’s mid-section that nullify ablution. Therefore, it is not to be assumed that it nullifies wudu unless we find the scholars explicitly stating such.

Lastly there is another matter to consider, there are women who secret almost all the time which means that they will always be in need of washing their private parts before every prayer, which is difficult. In the Maliki madhab there is a general rule concerning the removal of impurities, namely that “impurities that are difficult to avoid are excusable.” A person is excused from having to remove it for the sake of prayer. This rule is mentioned in Mukhtasar Khalil.
