The questioner:
Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh:
Peace.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, dear young man.
The Shaykh:
May Allah welcome you.
The questioner:
Shaykh, if I have a mushaf that is my own, is it permissible for me to write on the mushaf an interpretation of some words and their explanations?
The Shaykh:
No. No. It is not permissible, Shaykh.
The questioner:
In the margin, Shaykh. I mean on the side of the page, is that permissible?
The Shaykh:
No, not on the outside.
The questioner:
How do you mean on the outside, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
And the outside is for the sake of remembrance and benefit.
The questioner:
But on the mushaf itself, it is not permissible, Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
he.
The questioner:
I say that on the mushaf itself, it is not permissible.
The Shaykh:
Nothing is to be placed on the mushaf, except if it is an interpretation.
The questioner:
It is an interpretation, Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Like an interpretation between the verses.
The questioner:
Yes, an interpretation between the verses for myself, specifically for me, Shaykh. I mean an interpretation specifically for me, where I write the meanings of some words, the reason for their revelation, and so on, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in that, but the door of interpretation is, if Allah wills.
Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh:
Peace.
