What is the ruling on keeping a tightly sealed bottle of urine under the bed for days until it fills up, and does this prevent angels from entering the house? And must it be emptied daily?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to use a vessel for urination. And for the sake of excellence, combining the narrations, it has been said that the prohibition of this is either understood to refer to a long stay with the urine, or that the prohibition is specific to the daytime and not the night. It is preferable to dispose of it during the day.
