Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner asks: When throwing waste in the designated places, do we say "Bismillah"?
Answer:
Yes, so that there are no devils or jinn in it that might strike them and affect them. If you throw something on the ground, or hot water, or a stone, or anything, you say "Bismillah" for the sake of what they might do to you, because the earth is full of creatures, my brother, but you do not see them,[Al-A'raf 7:27], one takes refuge in Allah the Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
