Key principles

What this room needs.

  • Do not orient toilets so the user faces or turns their back to the qibla.
  • A hand-held bidet sprayer (shattaf) at every toilet, with a floor drain in every stall.
  • Keep toilets and wudu as separate rooms so the wudu area stays clean.
  • Wall-hung fixtures and floor drains so the room can be washed down.

Coming in the full guide

Three material tiers, drawn sections and plans, product examples and a PDF. Same format as the wudu area guide.
