There is no authentic stating that whistling in the restroom is among the manners of the People of Lut. The hadith mentioned in Musnad al-Firdaws on the authority of Ibn Abbas, raised [to the Prophet], "Ten things are from the manners of the People of Lut.... and whistling in the restroom," is among the weak and fabricated hadiths.
