Assalamualaikum to dear members, I have a few questions that need some clarification and hope some may give the answer sooner. :slight_smile:

Photo’s link


  1. Is it true toilets and bathrooms is a place for syaitan even it’s clean like the picture in the link?

  2. Is it true malaikat (angel) will not follow us when we enter the bathroom/toilet?

  3. Is it haram to build nice bathroom/toilet like the above picture?

  4. If one have money (making big house, big prayer room, big kitchen etc) won’t it make sense to have a nice beautiful bathroom?

Thank you very much.

There is no problem having a bahtroom like this, as long as they provide "privacy" while showering or using "powder room". Why would it be "haraam"?

Nikkah not valid

1. Is it true toilets and bathrooms is a place for syaitan even it's clean like the picture in the link?

It is believed that jinns reside in filth or areas that are not kept clean. Hence, there's a duaa that is to be recited before entering the bathroom.

2. Is it true malaikat (angel) will not follow us when we enter the bathroom/toilet?

Yes, angels do not follow you into the bathroom.

3. Is it haram to build nice bathroom/toilet like the above picture?

I don't see why it would be haraam, unless put under the category of unnecessary expenditure.

4. If one have money (making big house, big prayer room, big kitchen etc) won't it make sense to have a nice beautiful bathroom?

It would make sense I suppose.

Thank you for your input Mr Captain. Appreciate it.

This is my friends explanation (which make me very confuse with some Muslims in my country):-

Since toilet is a place for bad jin & syaitans therefore it’s haram for us to provided them with a nice beautiful bathroom/toilet like in the photo.

Dear Moderator Sadiyah.
Thanks for your time to read through my thread.

It is believed that jinns reside in filth or areas that are not kept clean.
I'm not going to be rude but what if the bathroom is clean 24/7? Do they still hang around/reside in that area?

The bathroom is clean because:
- Only two people living in that house.
- The bathroom is in the master room.

*Hence, there's a duaa that is to be recited before entering the bathroom. *
Yes the dua. Is it true we must cover our hair/head when entering the bathroom or the toilet?

*Yes, angels do not follow you into the bathroom. *
Thank you.
I wonder why angels leave us alone there. He must have good reason I guess.

*I don't see why it would be haraam, unless put under the category of unnecessary expenditure. *
Thank you.

It would make sense I suppose.
Thank you very much.

It has no basis, otherwise by that theory we shouldn’t even have toilets attached to our house, we should be going to fields for our “natural” needs. There is no harm in having a nice house with nice amenities etc. as long as we are following other parts of Islam (Huqooqullah and Huqooqul-Ibaad).

Assalamu Alaykum,

Like someone mentioned above, these are fine as long as the following is kept in mind:

“And give to the kindred their due, as (also) to those in need, and to the wayfarer: and do not squander (your wealth) in the manner of a spendthrift. Verily spendthrifts are brothers of Satan; and Satan is ungrateful to his Lord.” (Bani Israel 17:26-27)

It is an individual’s prerogative to figure out whether their spending is wasteful or not. If they do not violate this principle, they can build any type of washroom/house/mansion and so forth, if they think the money is being spent like a spendthrift, then they might want to stay away from such expenditure.

Also note that from this verse, it seems that spendthrifts are actually taking the share of those on whom it is due and spend it elsewhere - in other words, the money that is due to someone is their right and we should not spend it wrongfully thereby denying them their right.

Best Wishes,
Omer Iqbal
