Deleting the Qur’an from electronic devices
Salaam aleikum!I have old computer, and want to donate it to charity. On computer hard drive is copies of al-Quran (Arabic and English).Is it permissible to delete al-Quran from the hard drive?My grandfather says it is haram to destroy the holy Quran, and I should not do this. But, if I donate computer, charity will reformat hard drive and delete them anyway.What is your learned advice on this?Peace and blessing upon you.Thank you, brother.Ali Bukhari Quebec, Canada
