What is the ruling on saying the name of Allah during ablution if the place of ablution is shared with the restrooms?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I am saying now that the restrooms, the bathrooms, have become rooms in the houses.
The Shaykh : They have become what?
The questioner : Rooms.
The Shaykh : Rooms?
The questioner : Yes, they put the washbasins inside them, within the room.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And how does the one performing ablution do it? Does he say the name, go out, and say it the second time and perform ablution, like the tenants who cannot change anything in it, and the one who wants to take a full bath?
The Shaykh : I understood, I understood. He says that the restrooms, which are the place for relieving oneself, have become the place of ablution and bathing. So, does he say the name in this case or not? We say: if he says it with his tongue, there is nothing wrong with it, and if he says it in his heart, that is better, meaning he intends the naming in his heart without uttering it with his tongue, and you know the naming in the heart, yes.
