Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a person sees papers containing the name of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) that are lying on the ground, is he required to pick them up?
Answer:
If he sees a verse or a hadith in them, or sees the name of Allah, he must pick them up. But if he does not see anything, and he only says, "I am afraid there is something in them," he is not required to do so. Yes.
