Placing Islamic books with respect

Q: It's seen in many places that kitaabs, Islamic literature and even Quraans are placed terribly in Darul Ihsaan boxes so if after a person puts posters explaining that the kitaabs should be placed nicely the people still don't listen than should the boxes be removed?

A: You may take the initiative to make different sections in the box and indicate that this section is reserved for the Quraan Shareef and the other is for other kitaabs. Initially if you take the trouble to set it right, after some time people will get the understanding insha Allah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
