What is the ruling on one who takes the Noble Qur'an, places a key in it, opens it, and makes supplications?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... There is a phenomenon that occurred, and I would like to ask you about it. A colleague of mine, an ordinary teacher, brought the Noble Qur'an and put a key in it. He started opening it with the Qur'an. Among his words, he would say: "O Book of the Mighty Allah, if the West Bank is to return after five years of occupation, then turn, by the permission of Allah." The Qur'an did not turn... Then he said: "O Book of the Mighty Allah, if the West Bank is to return after seven years of its occupation, turn, by the permission of Allah." The Qur'an turned, and look at my eye.
Another questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : He put the key here on a surah, and we held the two ends of the key from here and tied it with a string; do you see? ... From here and from here. When he said: after five years, it did not turn at all. After six years, it did not turn. After seven years, the Qur'an turned in this shape... from our hands, and we held it...
Those present : [Everyone laughs!]
Another questioner : ... .
Another questioner : No, it did not happen, it has not happened yet.
The Shaykh : This is new, it did not happen like this?
The questioner : How?
The Shaykh : ... .
Another questioner : The one who did it did it about a year ago, perhaps.
The Shaykh : And how many years are left until the West Bank returns?
The questioner : Six months.
The Shaykh : Oh?
The questioner : Six years.
The Shaykh : Years or months?
...
The questioner : He said six years. If it is to return after six years of its occupation, I say: it did not turn; it remained fixed in our hands. Then he would say: if it is to return after seven years of its occupation... then turn, by the permission of Allah. The Qur'an turned like this... The key, we held it from here in a way that we do not influence it, meaning it is free if it wants to move or not. It started to move... The Qur'an... it had been about six years and a bit, meaning... now it has not been...
...
The Shaykh : ... I understand, my master, this matter happened between me and a person... like your friend here.
The questioner : And then he taught me it, and I did it once by myself... The Qur'an turned... not approximately anything.
The Shaykh : Oh?
The questioner : I mean, I thought that he might be a sorcerer or a person or something.
The Shaykh : ... .
Another questioner : After six years.
Another questioner : No, neither ten nor twenty-five... it did not turn.
The questioner : No, he... after five years, "turn, by the permission of Allah," the Qur'an did not turn. After... years, it did not turn. After seven years of the occupation, the Qur'an turned...
Another questioner : ... .
Another questioner : He told me the same words...
The Shaykh : ... The same words or others... Among your words, that the mushaf was like this, this is not correct; in knowledge, I was not present; because this is exaggerated... You can say that this Qur'an is standing like this and like this, like this, hung the first time... it did not move, the second time...
