Q: I have a question regarding the duas which are recited before and after going to the bathroom (“Allahuma innee a’udhu bika minal khubuthi..” and “ghufranak, alhamdulillahilladhi adhaba ‘anni..”).
Should these duas be recited if my purpose for entering the bathroom is to do wudhu in the sink or to take a shower? Or is it only if I enter the bathroom for going to the toilet?
A: This is for the toilet.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
