Writing verses on what is placed on the deceased
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: A dispute has arisen in our village among the people regarding the issue of spreading a garment,
or a cloth, over the bed of the deceased, and this garment has been written with Ayat al-Kursi, Surat al-Mulk, and other of the Most Beautiful Names. The question is: Is it permissible to spread this garment over the deceased? Is this a religious innovation? And does it have a basis in the religion?
A: It is not permissible to write Qur'anic verses and the Most Beautiful Names on the garments that are placed on the dead; because of what may lead to their desecration, and because the Salaf did not do this.
