Hello from Jordan,I agree with all what Ehabiddin said in this regard in his post. In the past, before around 30 years, it was almost the only available toilets. I said almost because there was certain percentage (which I do not know) was using the "modern toilets", but I would say they were mostly within the rich layer of the community. From 30 years to now, converting from "old" to "modern" toilet is so common everywhere in the country. I believe that this topic is very interesting, but needs hell of effort to get good feeling of what is the situation now and how the people expect it to be in the near future (their insight for the future). I know that my speech is general, but this is all what I haveRegarding using water for cleansing, Muslims follow three options (all are acceptable in the religion; Islam). Some use only toilet paper, others use water alone, while the third use both. However, I would say that the majority only accept using water (with or without toilet paper) as they think it is the only correct way of cleansing. For me, I adapt with what available, bit still I prefer the water option (I am not a fan of toilet paper! This because of my understanding of virtual water issue).When I was in Germany for my master study, I stuck with what I use always: water. I used to fill a water bottle before using the toilet so I can use water inside. A Muslim German friend of mine told me this method previously. Thus, I think that the Muslim community in Germany (and Europe) use water bottles but obviously enough not all of them, as part of them are using toilet paper alone.Regarding urinals. Yes, Münch you are right. Both points are valid: urinating standing and the point of splashing effect. Furthermore, I would like to add another point which is privacy. All three points are sensitive in Islam. You can find different opinions from Muslim scholars regarding "standing urination", and it is acceptable as per part of them. However, the point of splashing is critical and it is not acceptable at all. We, Muslims, must try as hard as it is possible to avoid splashing, otherwise we have to do what we call "Taharah" or "ritual cleaning" which is necessary for practicing our prayers. This is done by washing the parts/clothes which caught the droplets/flow thoroughly with water. Regarding privacy, it is not acceptable by any means to expose the area between the belly button and the knees for anyone (of course, excluding the case of marriage). As you know, using the urinal is something "public" and it is easy for others to see the the genital. For me, I never used the urinals before and I think I will not use them, which means I do not know if they actually does splash the urine or not. I see urinals something foreign to our culture (my own opinion). Mainly, urinals exist in hotels and some modern shopping places and restaurants.Hope that my participation helped in anyway and of course, I am open for any questions.
