Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. He says: Honorable Shaykh, in his second question, is there any report regarding when a person pours hot water on the ground or in the middle of the house, does he recite verses from the Qur'an or recite the basmalah in that case?
Answer:
There is no doubt that there are creatures that a person may not see; there are jinn that a person does not see, so he should not be rude to them or harm them. If he wants to throw something or pour hot water or the like, he says Bismillah before doing so, taking precaution with the name of Allah the Exalted. Yes.
