Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: May Allah reward you. Is it permissible to say that the letters found in the pages of the mushaf are created?

Answer:
The speech is the speech of Allah. As for the letters, I mean the ink, the ink which is the dye, and the paper, this is from our making, and the writing is from our work. Therefore, the calligraphy may be good, and the calligraphy may not be good, because this is our work. But the Qur'an, it is all, all of it, is for Allah, praise be to Him. It is all correct and all good. But this writing is our writing; this is our work. The ink is our ink, and the paper is our paper. But what is written is the speech of Allah. What is written is the speech of Allah. What is read is the speech of Allah. Yes.
