بَابٌ فِيمَا يَقُولُ الْمُتَخَلِّي عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَخُرُوجِهِChapter on What One Says When Entering and Leaving the Toilet
Hadith 505
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنَ الْغَائِطِ قَالَ: ((غُفْرَانَكَ))
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would come out of the toilet, he would say: «غُفْرَانَكَ» … "(O Allah!) I seek Your forgiveness."
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … A person entering the toilet may recite only “Bismillah” as well, as is established from the following narration. It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali ibn Abi Talib radi Allahu anhu that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: “The veil between the eyes of the jinn and the private parts of the children of Adam, when one of them enters the toilet, is that he says ‘Bismillah.’” (Tirmidhi: 551, Ibn Majah: 301) The hadith of Ibn Majah in which the following supplication is mentioned for when exiting the toilet: “Alhamdulillah alladhi adhaba ‘anni al-adha wa ‘afani” (“All praise is due to Allah who has removed harm from me and granted me well-being”) is weak. (In the chain of this hadith is a narrator, Isma’il ibn Muslim al-Makki, who has been unanimously declared weak. (See Injaz al-Hajah: 301))
