Muwatta Malik #461
The Qibla
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha that Rafiibn Ishaq, a mawla of the family of ash-Shifa who was
known as the mawla of Abu Talha, heard Abu Ayyub al-Ansari, one of the
companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, say, while he was in Egypt, "By Allah! I don't know how to
deal with these lavatories." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "When you go to defecate or urinate, do
not expose your genitals towards the qibla, and do not put your back
to it."
