Seeking the Place to Relieve Oneself and the Etiquettes of Entering and Exiting
وَ سُئِلَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْتَنْجِيَ كَيْفَ يَقْعُدُ قَالَ «كَمَا يَقْعُدُ لِلْغَائِطِ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام was asked about how a man should sit when he wants to perform istinja (cleaning oneself after using the toilet). Imam عليه السلام said: "As he would sit for relieving himself."
