The ruling on praying on the roof of the bathroom

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding praying on the roof of a bathroom, many of the worshippers on Friday pray on the roofs of bathrooms.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, because there is a barrier between them and the impurity, which is the roof. It is like if a clean mat were spread on impure ground and you prayed on it; your prayer would be valid. Yes.
