QUESTION: We bought a car. The person who owned it before hung, Wooden calligraphy, name of Allah and Muhammad (ﷺ) on the rear view mirror. Now that we bought this car, what to do with this? Can I remove it and put it in the cupboard of our house. Is it okay to just keep in the house cupboard? Not to hang it for decoration or anything, because I know that’s wrong.
