The questioner : Regarding a person who performs wudu' in the bathroom and then goes out to the sinks, which are very common in modern buildings, is it permissible for him to remember Allah, for example, while completing his wudu' at the sink, the hand sink?
The Shaykh : The hand sink, if it is outside the bathroom.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : That is, if it is outside the place of relieving oneself, there is no harm in remembering Allah the Exalted there. However, if it is inside the place of relieving oneself, he does not remember Allah the Exalted with his tongue there, in that location, as we mentioned earlier.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : But he remembers Allah with his heart, and there is no blame on him for that. Yes.
