· 12 Shaʻban 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

We are told nt to mention the name of Allah in the rest rooms. What about the situation of someone living in a flat and such person always performs wudhu in the rest room, will the the person not say bismillah?

Answer

If the restroom is somewhat away from the toilet area you may read the respective du`aas.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
