the part of disease outbreak in the north and all the rubbish you typed are nonsense. talking about squating when urinating, well ignorance is your problem, different unislamic doctors also buy that idea, dr achyutananda explains that urinating while standing leads to backache, quick loss of vital energy, fatigue, loss of energy of the senses, dr shiva also an ayurvedic doctor explains that from the health point of view, male and female bodies are made in a way that in squatting posture all urine effortlessly comes out. health wise it is adviceable to squat and pee, ignorant lots! cool huh?


[size=20pt] LOOOOOL. MR muslim your comment is hilarious. Are u joking??
So men urinating while standing leads to all those ailments. You and the quack dr achyutananda and any other muslim who believes this needs to get their head examined.

Oh dear! you just goofed, Muslims do not rub with the right hand, but left, and do not shake with the left,..so that should be amongst the christian dominated parts, since there is no ruling regarding it.

So what u saying is u can have sh.it on ur left hand and shake folks with ur right, and u have never made the mistake of touching anyone with ur left.

Why don't u use tissue which ensures no sh.it makes contact with ur skin. Oh right, mohammed never imagined tissues will be invented. His mind and allah were trapped in 7th century Arabia.

Good job @lexicon.

@paris, you still around?.I thought you reverted to Islam in Abakaliki, no?. Anyways, squatting when urinating is recommended in the Sunnah of Rosul(Allah's Peace and Blessing Be Upon him and his household). It's not a joke.

Standing and Urinating in Islam
First of all, we must remember that our ability to digest food and drink is a great blessing from Allah. We would not be able to survive without a digestive system. However, with every blessing comes a responsibility. Since human waste is classified as impure, Islam teaches us a few rules about how to relieve ourselves with dignity.

There are many Islamic guidelines about how to use the restroom. We will only focus on those that pertain to standing and urinating. This common practice has led to the following unethical practices:

1. Shamelessness. One bad habit that has resulted from using of public urinals is the loss of personal modesty in the restroom. It is very common to see two men using the bathroom while having a conversation at the same time. Had they peeked over just a little they would have be able to see one another’s private parts. This is abhorrent. The Prophet ﷺ (Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said,

“Allah detests it when two people relieve themselves uncovered and have a conversation.”

The Prophet ﷺ would take so much care to seclude himself that Al-Mughīrah ibn Shu’bah said, “I was travelling with the Prophet. When he needed to relieve himself, he went far away from me.”


2. Increase in impurity. How many urinals have you ever seen that provide wuḍū’ facilities, water fixtures or even toilet paper? Probably none. This results in people leaving the restroom without an appropriate level of cleanliness or washing their hands. The Prophet ﷺ said,

“When you go to the restroom, take three stones with you to clean yourself. That will suffice.”

Salman al-Fārisī, the Companion from Persia, was told, “Your Prophet has taught you everything, even how to use the bathroom.” He responded, “That is right. He ﷺ told us not to…use our right hand when cleaning and to not use less than three stones to clean ourselves after we finish.”

‘Ā’ishah (ra), the Prophet’s ﷺ wife, said to a group of women, “Tell your husbands to clean themselves with water because I am embarrassed to tell them. This is what the Prophet ﷺ used to do regularly.” Cleaning yourself, with either a solid substance or with water, is so important in Islam that once when the Prophet ﷺ passed by a man’s grave he told Ibn ‘Abbās (ra) that the deceased man is being tortured, but not for a major sin: “He didn’t used to clean himself after urinating.”

3. Disrespect for others. One of the common habits we find in people who regularly use urinals is that they also stand up while using a lavatory. This can result in an unsanitary seat covered with urine and germs. Very few people care to clean the seat, let alone the toilet area after leaving, so, the next person entering has to deal with that disgusting mess. In this regard, the Prophet ﷺ said,

“Beware of the cursed ones.” Some people asked, “Who are the cursed ones?” He replied, “People who relieve themselves in public pathways or in shaded areas.”

Public pathways and shaded areas are two areas where people would be offended from excrement and filth because they use them so often. The same curse would apply to those who leave filth behind for the next person. The curse, in this context, has two meanings: people are cursed by the one who has to deal with the dirt they left behind and they are cursed by Allah for their careless and disgusting habits.

Are there any exceptions?

The Prophet ﷺ always sat down to relieve himself. This is proven by ‘Ā’ishah (ra), who was constantly in his presence. She said, “Don’t believe anyone that tells you the Prophet ﷺ used to stand while urinating. He always used to sit down.” The only person who ever contradicted her statement was Hudhayfah when he said, “The Prophet ﷺ [while traveling] approached a garbage dump and stood while urinating. Then, he called me to bring some water for him, so I did, and he performed wuḍū’.” This is clearly an exception to the rule because the Prophet ﷺ was in a very dirty place. Hudhayfa’s description of the place being a garbage dump reveals to us the context and makes it clear that ‘Ā’isha’s (ra) challenge was referring to people who claimed the Prophet ﷺ did it often as a habit. Her challenge still stands today. When someone tries to misquote the statement of Hudhayfah in order to prove that the Prophet ﷺ used to stand and urinate just as people do today, we should correct it.

What should a Muslim do?

Muslims should try to combat this immorality in their own community by encouraging good standards of hygiene. We live in societies which claim to be clean and advanced, yet their toilets – the most basic of sanitary developments – are among the filthiest in the world. Visit any gas station, high school, theme park, etc. and experience what happens to the restrooms when there is no full time janitor to clean up afterwards.

People of the world still have much to learn from Islam’s frank information on cleanliness. Purity has an environmental impact and is strongly connected to worship; without a clean body, a Muslim cannot pray. It is such an important principle in Islam that the Prophet ﷺ said,

“Cleanliness is half of faith.”

The messenger of Allah ﷺ has taught us certain rules to observe which benefit both society and ourselves. It is up to us to be aware of this guidance, learn it and apply it.

It is very very illogical and stu.pid to say that the left hand is not fit for eating, reasons because you use it to wipe your bum bum..tell me, don't you use this same hand to cook the food you eat and do other personal activities that can only be done with both hands working together?


Does that mean the suppose Shaytan have to till the soil to grow crops and eat to survive like humans do? And still have the time to run the affairs of 7billion people in other to convince them to choose hell.

The curse, in this context, has two meanings: people are cursed by the one who has to deal with the dirt they left behind and they are cursed by Allah for their careless and disgusting habits.

Are there any exceptions?

The Prophet ﷺ always sat down to relieve himself. This is proven by ‘Ā’ishah (ra), who was constantly in his presence. She said, “Don’t believe anyone that tells you the Prophet ﷺ used to stand while urinating. He always used to sit down.” The only person who ever contradicted her statement was Hudhayfah when he said, “The Prophet ﷺ [while traveling] approached a garbage dump and stood while urinating. Then, he called me to bring some water for him, so I did, and he performed wuḍū’.” This is clearly an exception to the rule because the Prophet ﷺ was in a very dirty place. Hudhayfa’s description of the place being a garbage dump reveals to us the context and makes it clear that ‘Ā’isha’s (ra) challenge was referring to people who claimed the Prophet ﷺ did it often as a habit. Her challenge still stands today. When someone tries to misquote the statement of Hudhayfah in order to prove that the Prophet ﷺ used to stand and urinate just as people do today, we should correct it.

What should a Muslim do?

Muslims should try to combat this immorality in their own community by encouraging good standards of hygiene. We live in societies which claim to be clean and advanced, yet their toilets – the most basic of sanitary developments – are among the filthiest in the world. Visit any gas station, high school, theme park, etc. and experience what happens to the restrooms when there is no full time janitor to clean up afterwards.

People of the world still have much to learn from Islam’s frank information on cleanliness. Purity has an environmental impact and is strongly connected to worship; without a clean body, a Muslim cannot pray. It is such an important principle in Islam that the Prophet ﷺ said,

“Cleanliness is half of faith.”

The messenger of Allah ﷺ has taught us certain rules to observe which benefit both society and ourselves. It is up to us to be aware of this guidance, learn it and apply it.


Pee or Urinate in Squatting Posture is Healthier for Men and Women

A nairaland opened this thread few days ago. This somewhat backs lexcon post

Squating to poop is how our ancestors defecated for thousands of years and it is possible the human body has adapted to that mode of disposing solid waste(most animals squat to poop but not to pee). That is not Islamic, or Peculiar insight given by mohammed aka Islamic allah, it is nature. But this applies to squatting to remove solid waste. There is research to prove this.

However, men have urinated standing for cEnturies before mohammed AND AFTER, there is no research or study that says otherwise. This is why it comes natural for men and even women to pee standing up. It IS more conveinent and natural. However mohammed claims that men sitting to urinate is better BUT there is No research to show that the bladder empties better when humans squat.

NO research nor biological / anatomical evidence. It doesn't make sense.

God gave humans natural instincts. We don't need to be taught how to eat, nor defecate. Nor how to run or grow things or reproduce. It comes natural to humans.

Let's view this from a Muslims perspective. Why would Islamic allah wait for thousands of years before telling humans thru mohammed how to properly urinate or defecate. Why didn't the earlier prophets mention it.


Why do u choose to be held in bondage by the personal opinions of a dead paedophile. A man who claims shyatan uses his left hand. Can't u see this is plain 7th century superstition.

Smh for u.

Why does shaytan have to eat in the first place? I guess he wipes with his right hand since he eats with his left hand.
What does your christian doctrine says about this?. Does it even make sense to you to eat with you left hand, same hand you use to wipe your butt, to pick dirt on the floor etc?.

All I can conclude here is that all the lefties are satan right? The more you read islamic books the more is getting messy. Even you will see where mohamMAD called a black man shaytan, soon you will see it.
