The ruling on keeping books for the sake of adornment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says in his second paragraph: If these many books are in the second floor, Honorable Shaykh, I have kept them for the sake of adornment. Is there anything required of me in that?
Answer:
Do not keep them for the sake of adornment; they are not for adornment, but rather for reading and benefit. You can open them up to students of knowledge and researchers, opening a door for them to access them. You can set aside a time for them to come and benefit from them. You will receive reward for that, and you can browse through them and benefit from them as well. Yes.
