The questioner:
This questioner says: Is it permissible for a Muslim to enter the bathroom, may Allah keep you safe, with a mushaf in his pocket?
The Shaykh:
I mean the place for relieving oneself, or the bathroom which is the place for washing.
The questioner:
To relieve oneself.
The Shaykh:
No, this is not permissible. It is not permissible except if he fears for the mushaf; if he fears that the mushaf will be stolen or that it will be dishonored, he enters with it and hides it. He also hides it in his pocket. But if he does not fear for it, he leaves it and then enters the bathroom, the place for relieving oneself. Yes.
