Recycling paper containing the name of Allah

25-03-1999

Question 4258

Is it allowed to recycle paper which has the name of Allah on it or even if it says God.

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

There is nothing wrong with recycling these papers, so long as they are not exposed to any mishandling before the writing is erased from them.

And Allah knows best.
