Narrated/Authority of Abu Musa
AbutTayyah reported on the authority of a shaykh (an old man): When Abdullah ibn Abbas came to Basrah, people narrated to him traditions from AbuMusa. Therefore Ibn Abbas wrote to him asking him about certain things. In reply AbuMusa wrote to him saying: One day I was in the company of the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him). He wanted to urinate. Then he came to a soft ground at the foot of a wall and urinated. He (the Prophet) then said: If any of you wants to urinate, he should look for a place (like this) for his urination.

Hadith No: 4
Narrated/Authority of Anas bin Malik
When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) entered the toilet, he used to say (before entering) : "O Allah, I seek refuge in thee." This is according to the version of Hammad. Abd al-Warith has another version: "I seek refuge in Allah form male and female devils." Explaining the variance of the version Abu Dawud says : Shubah on the authority of Abd al-Aziz narrated: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee," and sometimes he reported: "I take refuge in Allah." Wuhaib (bin Khalid) (on the authority of Abd al-Aziz) narrated: One should take refuge in Allah.
