Arabic text

5213 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ الْخَلَاءَ نَزَعَ خَاتَمَهُ»

Commentary

On the signet ring of the Prophet ﷺ was engraved the sacred name of Allâh, Most High, and his own blessed name. Al-Khalâ' is a place where one goes to be alone to relieve oneself. To carry, therefore, such sacred words, while relieving oneself, is not proper. Likewise, to carry inside the toilet the Qur'anic Verses and the Prophetic Traditions in written forms would be forbidden.
