Ruling on entering the bathroom with a mushaf, and tearing up papers containing verses
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: If I have a mushaf in my pocket to read from wherever I am, and I enter the bathroom with it in my pocket, is there any issue with that? Also, sometimes I write verses on a piece of paper to help memorize them, and after memorizing them, I tear it up and put it in the trash can. Is there any issue with that? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good.
A: As for entering the bathroom with a mushaf, it is not permissible except in cases of dire necessity, such as if you fear it will be stolen, in which case there is no harm. As for tearing up the verses you have memorized, if you tear them so finely that nothing remains containing the mention of Allah, that is, a fine tearing, then there is no blame on you. Otherwise, bury them in clean earth or burn them. Tearing that leaves verses intact is not sufficient.
