Trailerload of misprinted Quran dumped in shrubs

Muslims are forbidden from dumping the Quran indiscriminately, even if it is misprinted, as this tarnishes its purity, and is in contempt of the holy book.

"It is a sin for a Muslim not to respect the Quran, even if it is not in its proper form.

"The National Fatwa Council had decided that unused copies must be disposed of based on Islamic teachings to ensure its chastity was protected," Kelantan deputy mufti Nik Abdul Kadir Nik Mohamad said today.

"Any printing firms wanting to dispose of unused Quran copies must use the services of accredited companies to ensure it is done in a respectful way befitting its purity.

"Meanwhile, an individual must burn the copy and either bury or throw the ashes, into a river," he said.

He was asked to comment on the action of the driver of a trailer who dumped its full load of Quran, believed to be misprints, at a shrubby area near Kampung Pak Endeng, Pauh Sembilan, near Bachok, two days ago.

A nearby resident informed the police and the religious department about the pile of Quran; which was dumped near the village, and was believed to have originated from a printing company in Selangor, for further action.
