The Ruling on Hanging Verses on Walls

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah preserve you. Now, Shaykh, regarding hanging verses on the walls, you have a fatwa from the Permanent Committee forbidding this, and you have a fatwa in the Da'wah magazine permitting it, Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
The decision permitting it is not repeated, so in the council and the office, and the like.

The questioner:
How, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
There is no harm in the postings in the office and the council, and the like.

The questioner:
Now, your fatwa, Shaykh, in the Permanent Committee regarding the prohibition.

The Shaykh:
It may be based on the previous opinions.

The questioner:
Meaning, the adopted opinion is permissibility. Now, Shaykh, who said that it involves disrespecting the Qur'an and that the intention is adornment?

The Shaykh:
Some people did not forbid it for this reason.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
Now, if one leaves it out of caution, there is no harm. Good, if Allah wills.

The questioner:
But if one does it, is there any concern regarding it in your view, Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
The intended benefit is the reminder and the benefit.

The questioner:
And do not enter, Shaykh, into the hanging of amulets for those who suffer.

The Shaykh:
It is not from this category.

The questioner:
It is not from this door. May Allah preserve you and reward you with good, Shaykh. Peace be upon you.
