However, urinating standing is makruh tanzih if there isn't a need to do so and it is fine if one experiences a debility such as inappropriate place or there is no clean place for him to sit and urinate.

Read More »The above hadith, if considered in passing would seem as though it contradicts the previous hadith, however, if one truly analyze them both, they aren’t contradictory, for there is a possibility that the Prophet PBUH did both – urinate while standing – because the Prophet PBUH couldn’t find any appropriate or clean place to sit or to explain to mankind of its permissibility and not a prohibition. This matter is as stated by Ibn Hajar al-‘Asqalani saying, the Prophet PBUH urinate standing to explain its permissibility. This is due to the fact that most times the Prophet PBUH urinate sitting. [8] Al-Nawawi stated that the scholars of madhhab al-Syafie stated that urinate standing is makruh tanzih if there isn’t any debility and it isn’t ruled as makruh if one experiences a debility. Likewise, it is sabit from Umar bin al-Khattab, Zaid bin Thabit, Ibn ‘Amr and Sahl bin Sa‘d that they once urinated standing. [9] Moreover, according to the majority of scholars’ opinion, urinating standing without any debility is makruh tanzih for the act contradicts the norm of the guidance of the Prophet PBUH (which is the sunnah of the Prophet PBUH) as understood from the denial of Aisyah R.Anha that the Prophet PBUH did as such. [10] Furthermore, it is undeniable that urinating by sitting or squatting is the best position for men to urinate. According to the Chief Medical Officer of Columbia Asia Hospital – Cheras, Dr Mohd Fadhli Mohd Yusof, in this position, the lower abdominal muscles, pelvic muscles and back muscles of the body are in a state of maximum rest. Not only that, a group of researchers at Leiden University Medical Center, the Netherlands revealed that men who urinate squatting can empty their bladders completely different from those who urinate in a standing position, where the pelvic muscles are tense and it makes it difficult for the urine to be excreted completely. In addition, according to Dr Mohd Fadhli again, the disadvantages of urinating standing can be seen from the aspect of hygiene, where urinating in a standing position can significantly increase the velocity of urine, thus causing the individual to be more susceptible to urine splashes that will stain his body and clothes, besides from also dirtying the toilet from the splashes of urine. In fact, most urinals are not equipped with a water source for the purpose of washing the genitals, causing many not to or rarely ever wash their genitals cleanly after urinating standing up. As a result, the genitals that are not washed clean will increase the risk of infections in the genital area such as candidiasis (fungal infection) and balanitis (infection of the head of the penis).
