Assalamu Alaikum Respected Ulama,
Is there any basis in Islam for the saying that if one leaves the Qur'aan open 'Shaitan reads it' or if you have ayaats of Qur'aan on frames that it should be covered because 'Shaitan reads it and distorts the meaning' (of the ayaats)?
Jazakallah khairan

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)



This is not true. However, to leave the Quran open without reading it is disrespectful and contrary to the Aadab (Etiquettes).

Also, care should be taken where you place the frames of Quran verses etc, at home. If there is any impermissible actions and disrespect (i.e. use of abusive language, shameful actions, watching Tv etc,) shown there then it will not be permissible to hang such frames.



And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

Mufti
