Muslim Toilet Rules --- My friend explained that Orthodox Jewish people observe a law that forbids them to cut or tear paper in any way on the Sabbath. The Sabbath is from sundown Friday night to sundown Saturday night. So: they cannot tear toilet paper for twenty-four hours!
She further explained that many religious Jewish people tear toilet paper into ready-to-wipe sheets before sundown on Friday, and place the sheets "on stand-by" in the bathroom. As a PoopReporter, I had to ask: what if someone got the runs on the Sabbath and the pre-made stockpile of toilet paper was exhausted with one or two wild poops? My friend said she had no idea what they would do for more toilet paper. Then I wondered further. How do Orthodox Jewish families estimate how much toilet paper needs to be torn and made ready for family pooping (and peeing, for the females) for twenty-four hours? Is there a mathematical formula? I've Googled and found no answers to these arcane queries. I guess I'd have to ask an Orthodox Rabbi... one who'd be willing to entertain this question. Interestingly, Googling revealed that in Israel, one can buy toilet paper in individual sheets for Sabbath use. I imagine it would be like buying a pack of regular TP, but already cut into serving size. I also saw advice to use a box of facial tissues like Kleenex for wiping, because the tissues are pre-cut. That way, no Sabbath laws would be broken.
