Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a person to pray with a bathroom in front of him, meaning that he prays toward it?
Answer:
There is no objection if he is outside the bathroom; there is no objection to his praying even if it is in front of the bathroom, because it is not accurate to say that he prayed in the bathroom; he prayed in a room.
