The Ruling on Hanging Qur'anic Verses on the Walls of Houses

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on hanging verses on the walls of houses?

Answer:
This is not appropriate. The Qur'an is not to be hung on walls. The Qur'an is to be in the mushafs (written copies) and in the chests of people, where the Muslim preserves it, either in the mushaf or in the chest of the Muslim, in the chests
Rather, the Qur'an is distinct verses [preserved] within the breasts of those who have been given knowledge. Andبَلْ هُوَ آيَاتٌ بَيِّنَاتٌ فِي صُدُورِ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ وَمَا
[Al-'Ankabut 29:49]
. It is not to be on the walls. This plaque may fall and be disrespected, and dust will settle on it, and other things will stick to it. So the Qur'an is to be protected from this. Yes.
