Entering the bathroom with a necklace with Quranic aayaat

02-09-1998

Question 2255

Can my wife enter the bathroom with a neckless that has words of the Quran on it?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

It is not permitted to enter the bathroom with anything that has aayat from the Quran on it, because this could lead to disrespect of the Word of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. Therefore, your wife should remove this necklace before entering the bathroom. Our advice is that women should not wear any jewellery with aayaat or duaas on it, because there are a number of reservations about this practice, of which wearing it when entering the bathroom is just one.
