Is it permissible to hang verses of the Qur'an?

The questioner : Many of our brothers in the Netherlands work in decorating homes with verses from the Qur'an, and many of our brothers use them in their homes. What is the ruling on trading in them? And what is the ruling for our brothers who hang them?

The Shaykh : This hanging is not prescribed, and Abu Ahmad is responsible for it, but Abu Ahmad transfers it to others, and the one who receives it remains responsible, or he is. As for those who make them, they are not doing a prescribed work; because the Qur'an was not revealed to decorate walls, but to fill the hearts with the wisdom and good admonition contained in it.
