Question
In these so-called Islamic schools, the pupils sit with their backs towards the Qur'aan Shareef. They sit in rows of desks one behind the other. What is the ruling?
Answer
These schools are not 'Islamic'. They are shaitaani schools, hence they are able to tolerate the disrespect shown to the Qur'aan. Sitting in this manner with the backs to the Qur'aan is haraam.
