Wearing sandals when going to the toilet

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is wearing chappals to the toilet sunnah?

Bismillaah

A: The toilet is a place of impurity. Hence when one goes to the toilet, it is better for one to cover his feet.

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