Question #161
What is the rule concerning throwing a piece of paper with the names of Allah, the Exalted, and verses of the holy Qur’an into rivers and streams? What about changing them into paste?
Answer #161
There is no objection to throwing it in rivers or streams if people do not consider it as irreverence towards them. Yet, it is better to put it into a container of water and change it into paste.
