It was narrated that `Abdur-Rahman bin Hasanah said: “The Messenger of Allah came out to us holding a small shield in his hand. He put it down, then he sat down and urinated towards it. Some of the people said: ‘Look at him, he urinates like a woman!’ The Prophet heard that and said: ‘Woe to you! Do you not know what happened to one of the children of Israel? If any urine touched any part of their clothes, they would cut that out with scissors. He told them not to do that, so he was tormented in his grave.’” (Da’if)

Whoever does that has done well, and whoever does not, there is no harm in it.

Whoever does that has done well, and whoever does not, tere is no harm in it. Whoever goes to the toilet should conceal himself, and if he cannot find anything except a pile of sand (behind which to conceal himself), then he should use that, for the Shaitan plays with the backside of the son of Adam. Whoever does that has done well, and whoever does not, there is no harm in it.”

Then he said to me: ‘Go to them and tell them: “Go back, each one of you, to your places.’” So I said that to them and they went back.”
