Question:
asalam-o-alaikum respected shaykh,
When i was 15 i saw a Qur’an in my school library, and as i was young and not well educated i though i should take the Qur’an to save it and take it to a Muslim home with the intention of saving it from mistreatment.Recently i have found the Qur’an, it was a translation by Picthall in English. I have realized this and am thinking what the ruling would be on this, would this come under stealing? I have repented for this and am thinking whether i have to return it or not? Could you please give me some advice.Please give my salaam to all our shaykhs.
jazakallah khair
