Question

If three are Shaytaans in the restroom, is it ok to not think anything at all as thoughts may be influenced by waswaz?. Do angels accompany one restroom?

Answer

Rasulullah [sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam] advised us to recite the following Du?aa before entering a restroom in order to protect oneself from the male and female Shaytaan: ?Allaahumma inniy a?oodhu bika minal khubuth wal khabaaith?.
