Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks: What is the ruling on kissing the mushaf?
Answer:
This is not reported except from some of the Companions. Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl used to kiss the mushaf as an exercise of his own judgment (ijtihad). There is no evidence for this from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) or from his Companions, except for the Companion Ikrimah, who did it as an exercise of his own judgment. One should not kiss the mushaf, but one should respect the mushaf, not place it in the dirt or in a place of desecration. One should honor it, revere it, and elevate it.
