Entering the restrooms with the mushaf in one's pocket

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it disliked or forbidden to enter the restrooms with the mushaf in one's pocket, and to be careless about it, even though it is closed and in the pocket?

Answer:
This is forbidden. It is forbidden to enter the bathroom with the mushaf except in case of dire necessity, if one fears for it from being stolen. If one fears it will be disgraced, that people will come and disgrace it and use it as a measuring stick, then he writes with it in the bathroom out of dire necessity, but he wraps it so that it does not get damaged, he puts it in his pocket, in a bag.
