Question
Hello Rabbi, Is it permissible to wash hands for a meal, etc., in a sink located in a bathroom (whether it is open or closed)? Thank you very much.
Answer
Peace and blessings
Washing hands after using the bathroom, etc., can be done there and dried outside, and the drying, which is part of the washing, will be effective.
However, for a meal, it is not possible to wash there.
In any case, the permission is only when there is no other choice, as this permission depends on a dispute among the poskim.
