Question:
What is the ruling on having the Quran on a keychain? As in a physical, entire mushaf but very small?

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:
The Quran is a sacred and holy book, the word of Allah (SWT). 1 Therefore, it should be honored and kept away from dirty places and from being touched without purification, regardless of the size of the Quran. 2
