Asalamualaykum Mufti Sahab, I live in mumbai in an appartment. We have bathrooms which are combined (toilet bath ) and we normally do the wudhu/ghusl in the same. Can we recite the duas before the start of wudhu / during wudhu etc in our bathroom. The only other place available for wudhu in my house is the kitchen sink and it is difficult for me to go there as ours is a joint family and there are women folk (Ghair Mahrams like servants, sister in law etc) in the kitchen most of the times. Also, can the wudhu be done whilst standing. Jazakallahukhaire!
Answer:
(Fatwa: 727/727=M/1430)
You should leave the du’as recited during wudhu if there is no partition between the joint bathroom and toilet, and the bad smell of toilet is felt. One can have bath standing, but it is better to bath sitting.
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
