What is the ruling on hanging verses to seek blessing?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to hang boards containing Qur'anic verses in the house or in the car to seek blessing?

Answer:
This is not permissible. The Salaf did not do this, and they were more eager than we are for good and for loving the Qur'an. The Qur'an is preserved in the chests, recited with the tongues, and acted upon; it is not hung on boards, nor is it used for seeking blessing. This is not from the practice of the righteous Salaf. That is one aspect. The second aspect is that this exposes these writings to disrespect. The board falls and is trampled. In the place where it is hung, idle talk and evil occur. This is a form of disrespect to the Qur'an. Yes.
