Question

Hello. A person is drinking a glass of water and hasn't finished swallowing yet. Is it permissible for him to enter the bathroom with water in his mouth and finish drinking there?

Answer

Hello

There is no clear source prohibiting drinking in the bathroom. Besides the fact that food and drink in a filthy place become repulsive, and it may be related to the prohibition of 'do not make yourself repulsive'.

Therefore, it seems that if there is no filth, there is no prohibition.
