Reciting duas and Quraan in a bathroom without a toilet

· 16 Rabiʻ II 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

A person has a bathroom with a sink, shower, etc. The toilet is enclosed in a shower door type enclosure. So the rest of the bathroom is not considered the toilet. Would it be correct to recite duas etc. there when making wudhu? Will it be fine to take a Quran inside the bathroom, recite Quran there whilst watching children in the bath? Not in the toilet, but in the rest of the bathroom.

Answer

It is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
