The ruling on placing the mushaf on a pure floor, and whether Qur'an tapes have the ruling of the mushaf?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In her penultimate question, she asks: Do the tapes on which the Noble Qur'an is recorded have the same respect as the mushaf? And is it permissible to place the mushaf on the floor if it is pure, provided it is in a safe place where it is not desecrated and no one walks over it?

Answer:
There is no doubt that the mushaf is respected, honored, and elevated, and it is not permissible to place it on the floor; because that is a desecration of it. It is only to be placed on a pure bed, or on a pure elevated object, and not on the floor; because this involves desecrating it. As for the tapes, they do not take on the ruling of the mushaf. The tapes only contain a stored voice, and they do not take on the ruling of the mushaf. Yes.
