How To Use The Toilet In Islam


Praise be to Allaah (swt)

These are some of the rules and manners prescribed by the sharee’ah of Islam about how to use the toilet and purification steps after using the toilet.

These etiquettes of using the toilet were taught by our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) which are as follows:


1. Do Not Uncover Your Awrah (Private Part)


Narrated by Anas ibn Malik (may Allaah be pleased with him) that
“When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to relieve himself, he would not raise his garment until he was close to the ground.”

(Jami at-Tirmidhi))

Narrated by AbuSa’id al-Khudri (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When two persons go together for relieving themselves uncovering their private parts and talking together, Allaah, the Great and Majestic, becomes wrathful at this (action)."

(Abu Dawood)


2. Dua (Supplication) While Entering Toilet


Narrated by Anas bin Malik (may Allaah be pleased with him) that
"When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) would enter the toilet 'He said:

Allahumma in-nee a'oothu bika minal khubu-thee wal khabaa ith.

Translation:

O Allaah, I seek refuge with you from all evil and evil-doers.

(Jami` at-Tirmidhi)

[Enter the toilet with the left foot first]


3. Dua (Supplication) While Leaving Toilet


Narrated by Anas bin Malk (may Allaah be pleased with him) that "when the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) would leave the toilet "He said:

Ghufranak, alhamdu lillah-hil lazee-aaz haba annil-aaza wa'aafani

Translation:

O Allaah, I seek forgiveness and pardon from You, All Praise be to Allaah, who removed the difficulty from me and gave me ease (relief)

(Abu Dawood)

[Leave the toilet with the right foot first]

4. Do Not Face Nor Back Qiblah


Narrated by Abu Aiyub Al-Ansari (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "While defecating, neither face nor turn your back to the Qibla but face either east or west."
(Sahih Muslim)


5. Punishment For Not Cleaning Oneself After Urinating


Narrated by Ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) "passed by two graves. He said: ‘These two are being punished. And they are not being punished for something major. As for this one, he would not protect himself from his urine. As for this one, he used to spread Namimah (slander).’”

(Sunan at-Tirmidhi)


6. Do Not Remove Najaasah (Impurity) With Your Right Hand


Narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When any one of you cleans himself, he should not use his right hand, he should use his left hand.”

(Ibn Majah)


7. Do Not Touch Your Private Part With Right Hand


Narrated by Abdullah bin Abu Qatadah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited that a man should touch his private part with his right hand.”

(Sunan at-Tirmidhi)


8. Impurity Should Be Washed, Wiped 3 Times Or Odd Number Of Times Greater Than 3


Narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When anyone of you cleans himself (with stones or similar material) let him use an odd number.”

(Musnad Ahmad)


9. Do Not Urinate By Roadside, Place Where People Seek Shade


Narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Fear the two things that bring curses.” They asked, “What are the two things that bring curses, O Messenger of Allaah?” He said: “When a person relieves himself in the road where people walk or in the place where they seek shade.”

(Abu Dawood)
