Question: Can you put papers with the name ALLAAH in the recycling bin?
Would it be advisable to put papers with the name "ALAAH" written on them in the recycling bin rather than burning them?

As they often get put in the masjids and they dont get burnt until they have quite a load & then they just get thrown around.

Jazaakallaah khair!

You can recycle such papers, but only after erasing the name of Allah Ta'ala, His Angels and Messengers.

It will not be permissible to recycle Quranic verses.
