Alternatively one may after erasing the name of Allah, his messengers and the angels\u2019 burn the rest or put it in flowing water.\u00a0 (Raddul Muhtar p.130 v.1)<\/p>\n<p>The above rule will apply to shredding; therefore one should first of all remove\/erase Allah\u2019s, his messengers\u2019 and angels name before shredding the literature. It is best that the shredded paper is not just thrown in the dustbin but disposed of in the methods mentioned above.<\/p>\n<p>A note of caution, the above ruling does not apply do the Qur\u2019an. The Qur\u2019an must be disposed only by burying it in a place where nobody would normally walk. (Durrul Mukhtar p.130 v.1) However, this may be difficult for some people who may be living in a flat and don\u2019t have a garden or cannot find a piece of land to bury the Qur\u2019an. In this situation it will be permissible to burn or shred pages of the Qur\u2019an or put it in flowing water by tying it with something heavy.<\/p>\n<p>Only Allah Knows Best<\/p>\n<p>Mohammed Tosir Miah<\/p>\n<p>Darul Ifta Birmingham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What can we do with Qur\u2019an that is no longer readable due to being torn?
