Question:
What is the ruling on placing supplications for entering the restroom, or leaving it, and other supplications inside the bathroom?
Answer:
This is not permissible. In principle, it is not permissible to hang supplications on the door of the mosque or on the door of the bathroom. Hanging supplications is a new trend that was not known among the Salaf. However, supplications are to be memorized in the heart and recited with the tongue, not hung on paper. This is a cause for these supplications to be disrespected, and they may contain the name of Allah. It is also an innovation that is not known. Furthermore, the common practice is that this falls under the category of decoration; they use it to adorn shops and doors. Therefore, this action and behavior should not be done. Yes.
