It is not permissible to desecrate anything that contains the remembrance of Allah

Question:
The brother, A. S. S. from Taiz in Yemen, says in his question:
We read a fatwa from your eminence: that it is not permissible to desecrate newspapers and magazines because some verses and Prophetic hadiths are found in them.
And my question, O Shaykh, is about the letters that reach a person from the post. How should I deal with them if the name of Allah is written on them? Is it Abdul Rahman and Abdullah, or the Basmalah inside the letter? We ask you to kindly answer.

Answer:
The ruling on letters that contain the remembrance of Allah or verses from the Noble Qur'an, and the ruling on newspapers that contain the remembrance of Allah or some verses, is that it is not permissible to desecrate them. Rather, it is obligatory to keep them in a suitable place, or to burn them or bury them in clean earth, in order to protect the names of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) and His Book from desecration. And success is from Allah.
