Is the wisdom behind our saying "Ghafirani" (I seek Your forgiveness) after leaving the toilet that the reason is the silence regarding the remembrance of Allah in the toilet?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: If the wisdom behind our saying "Ghafirani" after leaving the toilet is merely the silence regarding the remembrance of Allah in the toilet, he says: Is it prescribed for one who passes hours without remembering Allah the Exalted to seek forgiveness?
Answer:
My brother, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) says this because he is always remembering Allah, always remembering Allah the Exalted; he does not cease from the remembrance of Allah. So he considers his entering the toilet and his abstaining from the remembrance to be a sin and a deficiency in his right (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
