The Emptiness in a language
The vast expanse of Earth
In terminology
The place where there is no one, or nothing
Q: Does the emptiness is the usual bathroom today?
Since the houses at the time of the Prophet - may God bless him and grant him peace - did not contain a place to relieve oneself, rather they used to go to the spacious land outside the house, they cover themselves and fulfill their needs, and it has been called a toilet. Because one is alone in it.
In the previous era, this expression was synonymous with the termAl-Kanaf
In the hadith of Aisha, the Mother of the Believers - may God be pleased with her - in Sahih Muslim, this term was mentioned in her description of the condition of women when relieving themselves, and she said: (And we do not go out except night after night, and that is before we take Al-Kanaf close to our homes, we commanded the first Arabs to rose above it, we were harm to take them to our homes.)
And in a narration in Bukhari
(And our command is the command of the first Arabs to defecate before defecation)
And the excrement is
The low place, which was used for defecation in, then He - Glory be to Him - says in Surah An-Nisa: (Or has any of you come from the gha't, " defecation " Or have you touched women?) Verse:
The place of relieving oneself, the house of defecation, the Kaneef, or the house of the toilet
All of them are terms used to refer to what is called today a toilet, or a bathroom, where this empty space that was in the desert was moved inside the buildings, People's customs regarding this differed depending on time.
The second opinion
The toilet or excrement is the place prepared for relieving oneself, as for the bathroom, it is the place prepared for bathing, If this becomes clear; The defecation, or the toilet, is the place prepared for relieving oneself, in which a person is alone for this purpose, as for what is next to it from the watering hole, or what contains several cells of a large building, the description of emptiness does not apply to him.
And accordingly
Do not enter large spaces with your left foot (such as hotel bathrooms, restaurants, malls, etc.) rather, you enter the place prepared for relieving oneself, which is one of the cells grouped in this building, with your left foot.
As well as all the rulings related to defecation or the toilet, only apply to the same place where the toilet is intended, not on the large building that brings together several cells, Perhaps there were other water basins and the like in it.
Q: What is recommended to be said and done when entering and leaving the toilet?
In the entering
Presenting his left foot, he says, “In the name of God, I seek refuge in God from evil and female evil.
When you go out
Ghfrank, meaning: I ask you for forgiveness
Q: Is it permissible to face the Qiblah when defecating? What about public bathrooms such as hotels?
The correct view is that there is nothing wrong with that if it is in homes, but placing the toilets facing other than the qiblah would be better, In the desert, it is not permissible for a person to face the Qiblah while defecating or urinating, but rather make it to his right or left.
Muslim narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him: On the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: ((If one of you sits to relieve himself, he should not face the Qiblah or turn away from it))
In Sunan Abu Dawud - which is good with evidence - on the authority of Marwan Al-Asfar, he said: I saw Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with them both, leaning his camel facing the Qiblah, then sitting down to urinate towards it, so I said: O Abu Abdul Rahman, wasn’t this forbidden? He said: Yes, it is only forbidden in space, If there is something between you and the Qiblah that covers you, then there is no problem.
Q Mention the etiquette of relieving oneself? With evidence for this?
He does not enter the toilet with anything that mentions God Almighty or the Qur’an, and it is forbidden for him to read the Qur’an.
It is forbidden for him to relieve himself in
The path of the people, or under their shade, or their water sources, according to the words of the Prophet, :(Beware of the curser who abandons people’s path or their shadow) Narrated by Muslim.
It is forbidden for him to touch his private parts with his right hand According to what the Prophet said in the Two Sahihs on the authority of Abu Qatada, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: ((If one of you urinates, let him not take his private part with his right, He should not cleanse himself with his right hand, nor should he breathe into a vessel.)
It is disliked for a person to speak when relieving himself
It has been reported that God detests this, not speaking about a Dhkr or something else: Muslim narrated on the authority of Ibn Umar that a man greeted the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, while he was urinating, He did not respond to him.
Q: Is it permissible for a man to urinate in water and then bathe in it?
Muslim narrated on the authority of Jabir, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, it forbade urinate in stagnant water, and in the two Sahihs on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: ( (None of you should urinate in permanent water and then wash yourself with it.)
The scholars of Sunan narrated with a good chain of transmission on the authority of Abdullah bin Mughaffal, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, who said: ((None of you should urinate while bathing; most of the obsessive thoughts are from it.
