Placing the Mushaf in the car for protection

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: My brother bought a large car and placed the Mushaf, a small Mushaf, in its drawer. He says: When I asked him about it, he said it protects from evils and trials.

Answer:
This is not permissible. This is considered among the amulets and charms, and this is not permissible. However, if one carries the Mushaf and places it in the car in order to read from it when he has free time or during times when he is at rest, there is nothing wrong with that. But if he places the Mushaf in it for the sake of protecting it from being lost, or protecting it from being attacked, then this is not permissible; because it is from taking amulets and charms. The Mushafs were not made for that; rather, they were made for recitation and acting upon the Qur'an, and reading from them or in them when a person is able to do so. Yes.
