Genocidal threats against Israel? Not “un-Islamic.” Urinating while standing up? Un-Islamic.
This is a Sunni hadith, but it encapsulates the principle: “Aishah said: ‘Whoever narrated to you that the Prophet would urinate while standing; then do not believe him. He would not urinate except while squatting.’ [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Umar, Buraidah, [and Abdur-Rahman bin Hasanah].” Jami at-Tirmidhi 12
“Urinals Removed from Tehran Shopping Malls for Being ‘Un-Islamic,’” Iran International, May 11, 2024:
Shopping malls in Tehran are removing urinals, branding them as “un-Islamic” and indicative of “Westoxification.”
A fatwa by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei says it is Makrooh (disliked but not sinful) to urinate while standing or on a hard surface, forcing men to use the pit latrines instead.
The move has sparked widespread discourse and critique on social media. One user expressed frustration, remarking, “This is ridiculous! If they’d spend more time worrying about the economy, the starving people, the water shortage, they wouldn’t have to worry about how men urinate.”…
John Walters says
Wrap your brain around the suicide bombing of churches, hospitals, restaurants, schools…. isn’t un-Islamic but peeing standing up is. Wow!
Siddi Nasrani says
It’s what you call here in the UK, ” he is taking the piss “.
Crusader64 says
They might as well call themselves a woman. Only woman squat to pee.
SC says
They pee like girls or like old men with prostate issues? Seriously how did we ever feel threatened by men that squat to piss. No wonder they are claiming squatters rights all over the world.
Uma says
GOOD HUMOR
somehistory says
What a topic of conversation; what a concern for the ghouls of iran.
If they would stop killing, raping, harassing, murdering those who want some freedom while they concern themselves with bathroom/restroom habits, okay.
But this so very serious subject won’t interfere at all with the goals of their evil islam.
Hugh Fitzgerald says
The name given to the open-air stand-up urinals that not so long ago have been found in Paris (and some other French cities) — I think there is only one still in operation, in Paris’ 14th arrondissement. Perhaps we should remind the Supreme Leader that the Roman general Vespasian, after whom those urinals are named, was instrumental in suppressing a Jewish revolt in Judea.
Rarely says
Hugh. Is it true that women and girls must pee standing up?
Also, why remove the urinals instead of using them for washing up? Or mixing salads? Or for drinking water? It seems such a “waste” to remove them when they have so many good islamic uses.

And, dear Muslim brothers, Allah Ta’ala knows when you don’t sit to pee.

Don’t let islam take the piss
John Smith says
This is no B.S. what I say here, but when muslims enter a toilet they must enter with the left leg.. When they exit a toilet they must leave with the right leg..
So you put your left leg in, your right leg out, in out in out and shake it all about. I believe thats what you call the hokey cokey religion. As for the shake it all about bit, well I don’t want to get into too much detail about that.
somehistory says
Doing the hokey pokey with little kids is fun, John, and though this is a totally different subject, I had to laugh at your comment.
Thanks for the lack of ”too much detail.”
islam is stupid, evil and creepy.

The messenger of Allah represents the gold standard for Muslim living!
As Muhammad was not a very spiritual man we will draw wisdom from how he entered the toilet and how he would sit down while peeing!
These aspects of the life of the Messenger of Allah are a great source of inspiration and spiritual enrichment for the Muslim faithful who crave knowledge of inspiring facts of religious life!
Alahu Akbar!

abu taleb says
Muslims should also not use paper to clean his private, I don’t think there is paper available to wipe the arse during Muhammad’s time in Hijaz. In case of no water available, muslims can use stones or bones, so Iran government should prepare stones or bones inside shopping malls.
Who says “there is no fun in Islam”, isn’t this funny? LOL

“The prophet muhammad squatted to take a piss.”

Oh NO I think my Dog maybe Islamic, he squats to pee instead of hiking his leg.
Or is he LGBTQWXYZ?
How do you tell the difference?
Westman says
Submission, submission, submission. “We” control the vertical, we control the horizontal, we control the clothes and the secret parts. We turn humans into warring robots and economic incompetents, drunk with delusions of eternal superiority, reinforced by periodic prostration when commanded by the Pavlovian clock, where the rest of humanity and Jews are assigned an awful fate.
Nothing is too small to escape our tutelage. No soul shall escape our demands for smooth stones, upright character, and squatting urination. We did not create a flush toilet because our human pets might want more ease of life, electricity, running water, paved roads, automobiles, airplanes, television, cell phones, computers, and shopping malls. We cannot roll the clock back upon these unbeliever-invented developments yet we can emphasize our superiority over the pets.
Our next demand: No streaming video.
It’s good to be “us”. Keep praying and ignore the “error 404”. The system has been down for maintenance for 1400 years.

Islam dictates to females how they are to do their business & then some, or else ? .
Next, it will be the Potty Police using surveillance to make sure All females, infidels included, are using the potty according to Islamic law especially in public restrooms.
