Fatwa #308926 May 2001United States of America

How should paper material containing verses of the Qur’aan, Ahaadith and Allah’s names be disposed off?

Answer

Any material containing translations or transliterations of Qur?aanic verses, Ahaadith and Allah?s name, for example, Jazaakallah, Assalaamu Alaykum, etc. should be disposed off by burying them. Burning is also permitted though not preferable. (Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah, vol.1 pg.17)
