I just bought a very expensive and nice copy of the Qu'ran for a friend. My question is can you wrap it in a box with wrapping paper? Or would it be best just to keep it stored and then give it to them without the wrapping? I don't want to disrespect the book or do anything that would offend someone as this is beyond sacred book!

I sort of had this feeling not to wrap it up and just keep it at the top of my closet with the other Qu'rans that I have, so thanx

Hello dear. First of all- yes, it is sacred. When I give it as a gift I wrap it in some fine material (velvet or a fine cotton-) then I wrap over that material with wrapping paper.
Sometimes after I wrap it in the cloth material I put it in a box then with wrapping paper.
You are a nice friend. Peace be with you.

It does not matter if you wrap it or not. But if you want to follow the tradition of giving gifts I would say wrap it or put it in a gift bag. I don't think it would be offensive to them, it shouldn't really be.

Throw it in the trash. you wasted your money honey.
This the cause of most of the worlds trouble and you call it sacred?
