Question
The television is in my father and mother’s bedroom, and I want to play Qur’an on the television, but because my father is elderly, he urinates in a bottle and leaves it in the room. Is it permissible for me to turn on the television and tune into the Qur’an channels, knowing that the place is regarded as unclean or impure (najis)?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

Firstly:

Part of the etiquette of interacting with the Holy Qur’an is not to recite it in filthy places, or in places where people relieve themselves.

Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy on him) said in Fadaa’il al-Qur’an (p. 149):

With regard to reciting Qur’an in the lavtory , it is obviously makrooh (disliked), and if we say that it is haraam, out of respect for the Qur’an, that would be a sound view. End quote.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said, explaining the etiquette of reading or reciting the Holy Qur’an:

Part of that etiquette is not to read or recite Qur’an in filthy places, or in gatherings where no one will listen to it, because reciting it in such places is disrespectful towards it. It is not permissible to recite Qur’an in lavatories and the like, which are prepared for the purpose of urination or defecation, because that is not befitting to the Holy Qur’an,

End quote from Majmoo‘ Fataawa ash-Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (20/277).

Secondly:

This ruling does not apply to a room in which a sick or elderly person urinates into a bottle, because this room cannot be described as being unclean or impure (najis); rather it is pure (taahir), and the impurity is limited to the bottle only.

It is proven in the hadith that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) had a vessel that he would keep with him in his room, and urinate into it if he woke up at night. This is similar to the bottle mentioned in the question.

It was narrated by Abu Daawood in his Sunan (24), an-Nasaa’i in his Sunan (32), Ibn Hibbaan in his Saheeh (1426), and al-Haakim in al-Mustadrak (594) from Hukaymah bint Umaymah bint Ruqayqah from her mother that she said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to have a vessel made of wood under his bed into which he would urinate at night.

This hadith was classed as hasan by an-Nawawi in al-Eejaaz fi Sharh Sunan Abi Daawood (p. 155); it was classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Daawood (19).

It is known that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to remember Allah and recite Qur’an before going to sleep, and he would recite Qur’an when he woke up, and he would pray in his room. He did not refrain from doing any of those things because of this vessel.

So there is a difference between places that are set up for dealing with impurity, such as lavatories and places where animals are slaughtered, and clean, pure (taahir) places in which there happens to be some transient impurity.

The former are places where the Holy Qur’an should not be recited; as for the latter, the presence of some transient impurity in them does not mean that Qur’an cannot be recited there.

Based on that, there is nothing wrong with playing Qur’an in this room.

And Allah knows best.

swearing an oaths before commenting on this thread, he get as he be oooo
Just passing anyway

These guys are just funny, see topic

If only you guys used this energy you devote to some meaningless foreign religion and language to what actually matter like the betterment of humanity, the world would definitely be a better place than what it is today especially the middle east. There would be peace in that region.

But alas, what is more important is where Arabic music is played.

Either of the two is correct... burning or burying.

As it was reported during the time of Uthman(May Allah be pleased with Him). When the were collating the Qu'ran (Leaflets/Sheets) into a single segment.
All duplicate sheets were burnt. And some scholars said it is also permissible to bury them. Both actions are checked by your intention.

Rollitout:

To the best of my knowledge... if what you said is exactly how it is, there is no problem cos, Allah has not put a burden we can't carry on us.

They should first check for available place around close to the masjid,towards the back, right and left. if there is non. they are permissible to stand
in front of the mosque. that is in front of the Imam. Wallahu A'alam.

forgive my ignorance, but I do not believe most things scholars said, cos its just their own point of view. Burying them isn't cool, I don't think book decay and it can be dug up someday.

Every part of the teachings of Islam is towards betterment of humanity. So, the topic is not meaningless but highly relevant to betterment of humanity.
You not knowing anything about Islam or not being a Muslim does not mean to condemn everything about the religion. Instead, you should asked more questions on how this is relevant to humanity in a polite way.
