The ruling on burying fingernails after reciting the Qur'an over them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A message was sent from the Sultanate of Oman by one of the sisters from there. The sender (M. M.) has two questions.
In her first question, she says: I have heard some people say that when one finishes cutting one's fingernails, one must take them and bury them in a place, and recite some surahs over them, such as al-Ikhlas and the two Mu'awwidhat, and not throw them away. What is the ruling on this? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
This is something with no basis. When a person cuts his fingernails, he throws them away, and there is nothing wrong with that. There is no need to bury them or recite the Qur'an over them. All of this is superstition with no basis or foundation. When a person cuts his fingernails, whether a man or a woman, there is no blame in throwing them in any place. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
