Remembrance of Allah with the heart is prescribed at all times and in all places

Question:
A person is required to remember Allah at all times and in all circumstances, except in places where remembering Allah is prohibited, such as the bathroom, for example. Does a person completely cease remembering Allah in the bathroom, even in his heart?
Answer:
Remembrance of Allah with the heart is prescribed at all times and in all places, in the bathroom and elsewhere. What is disliked in the bathroom and similar places is remembering Allah with the tongue, out of reverence for Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), except for the invocation of His name during ablution. One should say it if it is not possible to perform ablution outside the bathroom, because it is obligatory according to some scholars and a confirmed recommended practice according to the majority.
