How should one handle a phone call while using the restroom?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
If I am in the washroom and one of my parents calls me, should I answer them or answer them when I come out?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

If you are in toilet and your parents are not calling you due to some problem, you should not respond, rather you should get out as soon as possible and attend them:

استدلوا علی کراھۃ الکلام عند التغوط ۔۔۔ ویجوز التکلم بضرورۃ کإنقاذ الحرقی والغرقی وقتل حیۃ (بذل المجھود 1:10)

Allah knows Best!
