The ruling on praying facing the bathroom
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. One of her questions says: May Allah honor you, O Shaykh, my room is next to the bathroom, may Allah keep you safe, and my listening brothers. If I face the qiblah, I will be facing the bathroom. Of course, there is a wall between the room and the bathroom, but is it permissible to pray in the direction of the qiblah if one is facing the bathroom, or not?
Answer:
What else can be done? As long as there is a wall between her and the bathroom, and there is no option but this, there is no harm. However, if she has the ability to avoid facing the bathroom, and the room is spacious enough for her to avoid facing the bathroom, then that is better. Yes.
