When I am reading the Quran and have it spread on the floor I am respecting it more than having it sitting collecting dust on the table. To say that I am disrespecting the Quran while I am reading it because I have it on the ground, without evidence, is wrong. I think When someone comes by and interrupts me to tell me to lift the book off the ground they are disrespecting me not preventing me from disrespecting the Quran.

Slm,

In the story of the Jews who came to the Prophet (saw) asking about the punishment for adultery, the Prophet asked for the Torah, and he asked for a cushion, and he put the Torah on the cushion.

If that is the sort of respect to be shown to a Jewish book, don't u think Allahs book deserves to be even higher.

Also, Allah says in the quran "wa kalimatullahi heal ulya" so that is proof to keep it raised.
