The ruling on placing the mushaf near a child to protect him
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Placing the mushaf around a child to protect him from jinn and humans.
Answer:
There is no basis for this; it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). The mushaf and the Qur'an are not to be used as barriers. The Qur'an is to be recited and read as a means of drawing near to Allah. As for hanging it or placing it near a person, or putting it in a car, to serve as a barrier, this is not permissible. This is a desecration of the great Qur'an. Yes.
