Question:
The questioner says: If a mushaf falls from me, is it permissible for me to kiss it? And is this a bid'ah (religious innovation)?
Answer:
No, there is no basis for kissing it in the hadiths. Rather, some of the Companions did it as an exercise of independent legal reasoning (ijtihad). So if you do this, there is no blame on you. If you kiss it, there is no blame on you.
