Ruling on following the mu'adhdhin inside the restroom
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother asks this question and says: If I am in the restroom and I hear the mu'adhdhin, should I say what he says? Knowing that this is in private, and if I am remembering Allah in my heart in the restroom, is this prohibited? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is not prescribed for you to do that in the restroom, but in your heart there is nothing wrong with it without vocalizing it. And for a person to hold this great dhikr in his heart, there is nothing wrong with it. Even if he is attending to his needs, if he recalls religious matters, the meanings of the Qur'an, and the meanings of the hadiths, there is no blame on him. What is disliked is vocalizing it. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
