A lota with a spout is used for cleansing oneself after urination or definition and this use is primarily associated with Muslims of South Asia i.e. Pakistan, Bangladesh and India, however, similar vessels are used in other Muslim countries too for personal hygiene. It is also used for wadu or ablution by some Muslims. A lota used for ablution is kept separate from the one used in toilet.
