Ruling on the Recitation of the Quran in the Bathroom
Fatwa No: 465838

Question

Salam walikum Dear Respected.I'm Newly Converted Muslim. My Fank Question To You Is Can I Read Holly Quran In Bathroom ?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

First of all, we praise Allah, the Exalted, for guiding you to Islam and ask Him, The Almighty, to make us steadfast on the Right Path until we meet Him.

As for the question on the recitation of the Quran in the bathroom, the view we adopt is that it is prohibited to do so, since this is against the glorification of Allah and His Names, Attributes, and Glorious Speech. Allah, the Exalted, says (what means): {That [is so]. And whoever honors the symbols of Allah - indeed, it is from the piety of hearts.} [Quran 22:32]

Allah knows best.
