Challenge: make a program that outputs a MD5 hash of its source code.
You should not use tricks that would be considered cheating in a quine sense (discussed here).
Using built-in functions and external libraries is allowed. The program should be a full program (not a function/subroutine). Code-golf: shortest solution (byte count) wins.

5Please include sufficient information regarding MD5 hashes directly in the post such that Wikipedia could be used as a supplement rather than a necessary resource. Challenges should be as self-contained as possible. – Alex A. – 2015-12-03T21:44:43.677

This is a borderline duplicate of the plain quine challenge. A large portion of the answers can simply be copied over here with

Its a good question, but definitely a dup of http://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/8947/cryptographic-quine-variant. Perhaps that one needs some more answers :)
