Resolution No.(114): "Prayer Mats on which the Word Allah is Inscribed"

Date: 6/8/1427 AH, corresponding to 30/8/2006 AD.

 

The board received the following question: 

What is the ruling of Sharia as regards pieces of prayer mat on which the word {Alla-Call} is inscribed?

Answer: All success is due to Allah.

After examining the above mentioned pieces of mat, the Board decided that it is impermissible to spread them on the ground because doing so abases the word ”Allah“ and subjects it to being stepped on. And Allah Knows Best.
