The questioner : In a hadith in "Sahih al-Jami'" narrated by al-Bayhaqi, which I have graded as good; the hadith is: "He prohibited covering the walls"; does this include covering them with paper as is the case now?
The Shaykh : If the intention behind covering with paper is adornment, then it is also prohibited. If the intention is to preserve the wall from ... and the like, then that is better than the other.
