The ruling on writing verses on invitation cards

The questioner:
Among the things [people do], in some graveyards, they recite verses from the Qur'an in the surahs of the biographies, and then, after reciting, they mix in a poem from the city directed at the verses so that the Qur'an is not heard.

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to write verses on invitation cards, because this exposes them to disrespect; it exposes the verse to disrespect, and to being thrown in the trash or treated with contempt. No, there is no need to write the verse; that is not the reason for it. Write, "We invite you to attend the wedding at such-and-such a place." But as for verses or hadiths—hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)—this is not permissible in things that are exposed to disrespect and neglect. When people read them, they go and tear them up or burn them. Most people chew on them, even the students of knowledge chew on them and do not care about them.

The questioner:
May Allah bless you.
