Marwan al-Asfar said: I saw Ibn Umar make his camel kneel down facing the qiblah, then he sat down urinating in its direction. So I said: Abu Abdur Rahman, has this not been forbidden? He replied: Why not, that was forbidden only in open country; but when there is something between you and the qiblah that conceals you, then there is no harm.

Narrated Abd Allaah bin Umar: I ascended the roof of the house and saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sitting on two bricks facing Jerusalem (Bait al-Maqdis) for relieving himself.

Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Prophet of Allah ﷺ forbade us to face the qiblah at the time of making water. Then I saw him facing it (qiblah) urinating or easing himself one year before his death.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: When the Prophet ﷺ wanted to relieve himself, he would not raise his garment, until he lowered himself near the ground. Abu DAwud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Abd al-Salam bin Harb on the authority of al-Amash from Anas bin Malik. This chain of narrators is weak (because Amash's hearing tradition from Anas bin Malik is not established).

Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudri: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: When two persons go together for relieving themselves uncovering their private parts and talking together, Allah, the Great and Majestic, becomes wrathful at this (action). Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated only by Ikrimah bin Ammar.

Narrated Ibn Umar: A man passed by the Prophet ﷺ while he was urinating, and saluted him. The Prophet ﷺ did not return the salutation to him. Abu Dawud said: It is narrated on the authority of Ibn Umar that the Prophet ﷺ performed tayammum, then he returned the salutation to the man.

Narrated Muhajir ibn Qunfudh: Muhajir came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was urinating. He saluted him. The Prophet ﷺ did not return the salutation to him until he performed ablution. He then apologised to him, saying: I disliked remembering Allah except in the state of purification.

Narrated Aishah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to remember Allaah, the Great and Majestic, at all moments.

Narrated Anas ibn Malik: When the Prophet ﷺ entered the privy, he removed his ring. Abu Dawud said: This is a munkar tradition, i. e. it contradicts the well-known version reported by reliable narrators. On the authority of Anas the well-known version says: The Prophet ﷺ had a silver ring made for him. Then he cast it off. The misunderstanding is on the part of Hammam (who is the narrator of the previous tradition mentioned in the text). This is transmitted only by Hammam.

Narrated Ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ passed by two graves. He said: Both (the dead) are being punished, but they are not being punished for a major (sin). One did not safeguard himself from urine. The other carriedtales. He then called for a fresh twig and split it into two parts and planted one part on each grave and said: Perhaps their punishment may be mitigated as long as the twigs remain fresh. Another version of Hannad has: "One of them did not cover himself while urinating. " This version does not have the words: "He did not safeguard himself from urine. "
