The ruling on striking a scorpion with a mushaf in the mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This second one says: It happened that a scorpion passed in front of the worshippers in one of the mosques, so one of them took a mushaf and struck it with it. When the prayer was finished, some people disapproved of his action. What is your opinion?
Answer:
Yes, this is wrong. It is wrong for him to take the mushaf and strike the scorpion or anything else with it. The mushaf is not to be degraded by being used for striking, and this is not permissible. If he kills the scorpion with something else, for example, he takes the holder of the mushafs, or a stick from among the sticks of the worshippers, and strikes it with that, or he leaves it to go, then he does not strike it with the mushaf. Yes.
