What is the ruling on entering the restroom while wearing something that bears the Name of Allah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
(M. M. 'A) A woman calling the program says: A woman has a gold chain on which the Name of Allah is written. She says, “O Shaykh, is it permissible for me to enter the restroom wearing it?”
Answer:
There is no blame on you, praise be to Allah, but if it is easy for you to leave it outside when entering the bathroom, that is better. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to remove his ring when entering the place of relief, and it bore the inscription “Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.” So if it is easy for you to leave it outside, there is nothing wrong with that. And if you fear that it will be stolen, or that you will forget it, there is no blame on you—Allah willing. The matter is broad, yes.
