Genizah is usually reserved for pages printed with Hashem’s name or objects used for mitzvot. Now Rabbi Shlomo Aviner says the Koran deserves a place there, too.
The question of whether a copy of the Koran must be placed in genizah instead of disposed of normally in the trash was posed to Rabbi Aviner in the weekly HaSoreg leaflet.
Since the Koran includes the name of Hashem and words of faith, it should be wrapped well and placed in genizah, Rabbi Aviner wrote in his response.
The rabbi is rosh yeshiva of Ateret Yerushalayim and the rav of Beit El.
