Hanging Qur'anic verses on walls

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on hanging Qur'anic verses on walls? And is it to be condemned for whoever does this?

Answer:
Yes, this is a form of frivolity and a desecration of the Qur'an. It is something the Salaf did not do; they did not hang the Qur'an on walls, nor write it on walls, nor on cars, nor on signs along the roads. All of this is frivolity with the Qur'an, and the Qur'an must be protected from such behavior. The Qur'an is preserved in the chests of people, preserved in the mushafs, and acted upon. As for writing it and hanging it up, this is either a desecration of the Qur'an, or it becomes one of the amulets and barriers that are hung up to drive away Satan, or the envious one, or to prevent the evil eye, or the like. Thus, this also falls under the category of amulets. The bottom line is that this action is not permissible; the Qur'an is to be protected from such frivolity. Yes.
