Urinals don't have toilet paper because they're designed only for liquid waste, not solids, and adding paper creates major plumbing problems like clogs and blockages, increases maintenance costs, poses hygiene risks with mess on the floor, and is generally unnecessary as men usually just shake to dry off after urinating. Toilet paper isn't meant for the narrow pipes of urinals and can cause significant issues for facilities.
Urinals omit toilet paper because it is largely unnecessary for their purpose, creates hygiene and plumbing problems, increases maintenance costs, and conflicts with restroom design and user privacy norms. Where wiping is required, facilities direct users to stalls equipped for safe disposal.
The physical reality that residual drops may appear post-urination – regardless of wiping – reinforces why many men don't prioritize this habit. Shaking it 2-3 times is usually enough, leaving no more urine behind than if it had been wiped.
In many Amish homes, rags are a common toilet paper alternative. These rags are typically old clothes that have been worn out. After simple processing, they become practical cleaning tools. After use, they are washed clean and can be reused multiple times.
Eating any food while on the toilet is forbidden. After defecating, the anus must be washed with water using the left hand, or an odd number of smooth stones or pebbles called jamrah or hijaarah (Sahih Al-Bukhari 161, Book 4, Hadith 27). Many jurists agree that toilet paper suffices in place of these stones.
I don't know about all of them but 28 years ago before I left we did not use any store bought tampons or pads. Instead we used these ripped up towels and rags and they would be like this long and we would roll them four or five times and then we would use four safety pins and pin them to our homemade underwear.

Muslims attach great importance to cleanliness. They must have running water (from a tap or poured from a jug) in toilets, as they consider toilet paper inadequate; if a bedpan has to be used a container of clean water should accompany it.
Toilet paper and other clean implements like stones can be used in addition to water to aid in purifying the area. Istijmar is the equivalent action just using stones, toilet paper, or anything else that is pure without the water.

Here's why urination can feel pleasurable, and sometimes even “orgasmic”: Tension and Release: As your bladder fills to capacity, your urge to go increases—causing real, physical tension. Your pelvic floor muscles tighten to prevent leakage, and just like during sexual arousal or climax, that tension builds up.
Retrograde ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen which would be ejaculated via the urethra is redirected to the urinary bladder. Normally, the sphincter of the bladder contracts before ejaculation, inhibiting urination and preventing a reflux of semen into the bladder.
A pee dance is also a method of distraction. Your brain finds it easier to focus on something when you're standing still as opposed to moving around, so the dancing takes your mind off the engorged water balloon that is your bladder.
And you'll usually start to feel the urge to pee when your bladder has about a cup full. Up until age 50, men pee faster than women. But then it starts to decline and women take the lead. The World Record for the longest pee is 508 seconds.
