However in the course of travelling one is sure to need to use a toilet. One may well ask whether or not one is allowed to enter a toilet with this prayer in one’s pocket, and furthermore in some cases it may even contain the name of Hashem written in full. The answer is that it is preferable to have a small durable container for this prayer and this container is put in one’s pocket. This arrangement is known as a keli within another keli, and one can then enter a toilet with it in one’s pocket without any problem. (Mishnah Berurah 43:25)</span></p>
