Ruling on writing Qur'anic verses on the walls of mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother also asks and says: Is it permissible to write the Noble Qur'an on the walls of mosques? Or is it not permissible?
Answer:
That is disliked; because it distracts the worshippers. The best and most preferable thing is not to write on the walls of mosques, neither the Qur'an nor anything else. Many scholars have explicitly stated this; because mosques are the place of prayer and the place of worship. So it is best for them to be free from writings or engravings that distract the worshippers. Therefore, it is not recommended to write Qur'anic verses or anything else on their walls, so that the worshipper is not distracted. Rather, they should be plain with nothing in them; this is what is prescribed. At the very least, writings in mosques are disliked because they occupy the worshippers and distract them, even if it is with something other than verses, such as hadiths, poetic verses, or other things that might be written. Likewise, engravings that might occupy the worshipper are disliked to have in mosques. Yes.
