Islamic toilet etiquette
Islamic toilet etiquette is a set of personal hygiene rules in Islam that concerns going to the toilet. This code of Islamic hygienical jurisprudence is called Qaḍāʾ al-Ḥāǧa.
Personal hygiene is mentioned in a single verse of the Quran in the context of ritual purification from a minor source of impurity, known as the Wuḍūʾ verse; its interpretation is contentious between different legal schools and sects of Islam. Further requirements with regard to personal hygiene are derived from a Hadith, and these requirements also differ between sects.
Rules
A Muslim must first find an acceptable place away from standing water, people's pathways, or shade. It is advised that it is better to enter the area with the left foot, and it is prohibited to face directly towards the Qibla or directly opposite from it. It is reported in the collection of hadith, Sahih al-Bukhari, that just before entering the toilet, Muhammad said:. Many jurists agree that toilet paper suffices in place of these stones. Similarly, the penis or vulva should be washed with water using the left hand after urinating, a procedure called istinja. It is commonly done using a vessel known as a aftabeh, lota, or bodna.When leaving the toilet, one is advised to exit with the right foot and say the Dua for leaving bathroom/toilet: "'الحمد لله الذي أذهب عني الأذى وعافاني'Alhamdu lillahil lazi azha-ba annill Aza Wa AA Fani. "Praise be to Allah who relieved me of the filth and gave me relief."
