Is it permissible to cover the Janaazah with a cloth on which aayats of the Qur'aan are inscribed?

Question

Is it permissible to cover the Janaazah with a cloth on which aayats of the Qur'aan are inscribed?

Answer

It is not permissible to drape the janaazah with a cloth on which Qur'aanic aayaat, etc. are inscribed. The gracious Qur'aanic verses are grossly disrespected by the hands of some people who touch it without wudhu and by them bundling up the cloth afterwards and casting it aside as is the usual case.
