I want to ask question about growing trend of using commode in toilets these days.Is it allowed for a person in normal health to use commode in toilet instead of taditional seats. I hope my question will be answered as soon as possible.
Answer:
(Fatwa: 959/882=L/1429)
As far as I know, in western style toilets, it is extremely difficult to maintain all etiquettes, avoid the splash of water and have complete Taharah; therefore it will be makrooh (undesirable) to use western style toilets.
