The answer

If the intention behind mentioning Allah in the lavatory – the place where one relieves oneself – is meant, then it is religiously disliked (makrooh), and the one who does it should be forbidden and advised, and their mistake clarified. However, if 'hammam' (bathroom) refers only to the place of washing, then mentioning Allah therein is not disliked. The remembrance of Allah is good in every place unless there is a prohibition against it.
