The Remembrance of Allah Before Entering the Restroom
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa number (1607)
Q 1: Is it permissible for a Muslim to enter the restroom and remember Allah (Mighty and Majestic), or does he stop remembering Allah as soon as he enters?
A 1: Praise be to Allah alone, and blessings and peace be upon His Messenger, his family, and his Companions. And after: Among the etiquettes of Islam is that a person remembers his Lord when he intends to enter the place of relief or the restroom, by saying before entering: “O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the male and female evil spirits.” He does not remember Allah after entering; rather, he remains silent regarding His remembrance as soon as he enters.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
