Is ambergris pure?

Q: I would like to know if ambergris is pure. I've heard that it is either the vomit or faeces of a sperm whale. In light of the Shafi and Hanafi madhab, would a perfume containing ambergris be ritually impure?

Ruling of wudhu due to vaginal discharge

Q:

1. May I know all the different types of vaginal discharges and their wudhu/ghusul/najasah ruling according to shariah? Cervical mucus is a normal part of every girl’s monthly cycle and most days in the month she will normally have cervical mucus. This cervical mucus is of varying thickness, opaqueness and stretchability depending on how close or far she is from ovulation. Is this normal cervical mucus discharge what is called “mazi”?

2. I would like to know if wudhu remains or not if the cervical mucus does not exit the private part — it stays within the lips and you can also feel that there is some slippery/wet cervical mucus INSIDE the lips, but it has not exited the lips yet.

3. I was told that wudhu does not break if the fluid does not exit the lips. However, I was reading behishti zewar (وضوء توڑنے والی چیزوں کا بیان) and here is what it says:

مسئلہ ۳۶: پیشاب یا مذی کا قطرہ سوراخ سے باہر نکل آیا لیکن ابھی اس کھال کے اندر ہے جو اوپر ہوتی ہے تب بھی وضوء ٹوٹ گیا۔

What does this mean? I am still confused about if mazi is the normal cervical fluid.

4. I do not know what a wet dream is.
