Designating Mus-hafs to be distributed in a specific way

Q: I got some Mus-hafs (copies of the Qur'an) from the Saudi Ministry of Religious Endowments to be sent to a Faqir (poor) domestic Masjid (mosque) which is located in my village in Egypt. Such Mus-hafs have been taken to Egypt by a friend of mine. Nevertheless, my friend delivered a big part of these Mus-hafs to the Masjid mentioned above and distributed few Mus-hafs amongst some friends who abide by Islam; we think them so In sha’a-Allah (if Allah wills). It may be worth mentioning that I was told that the Mus-hafs were given to such friends to read from them and not for decoration. Does this distribution of some Mus-hafs amongst friends comply with the main purpose of (Part No. 16; Page No. 21) sending these Mus-hafs to Egypt or not? We hope that your Eminence will provide us with your beneficial answer regarding these questions. May Allah enable you to support the cause of Islam and Muslims. May Allah reward you with the best.

A: Your friend mentioned above is only permitted to give such Mus-hafs to the Masjid for which they are allocated or to a similar Masjid. Accordingly, it is impermissible for your friend to distribute any of these Mus-hafs amongst friends. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
