Is it permissible to hang Qur'anic verses in shoe stores?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it permissible to hang Qur'anic verses in shoe stores?

Answer:
We are not aware of any objection to hanging verses in offices, in gathering places, or in shops; for the sake of reminder and admonition. Even if one sells shoes or makes shoes, it does no harm; because this does not involve desecrating them, as long as they are hung. It is like reminding people of something that benefits them:
And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَى تَنفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
[Surat al-Dhariyat:55] or writing verses:
And establish prayer and give zakah and bow with those who bow [in worship and obedience].وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَارْكَعُوا مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ
[Surat al-Baqarah:43] or
Maintain with care the [obligatory] prayers and [in particular] the middle prayer and stand before Allah, devoutly obedient.حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلاةِ الْوُسْطَى وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِِ قَانِتِينَ
[Surat al-Baqarah:238] or similar verses that contain reminder and admonition. This is not called desecration. This is the stronger position among the statements of the scholars of knowledge. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
