Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalamualaikum 1-Is it permissible to put a cloth with the verses of Quran written on it on top a Coffin or a Janazah for blessings and then take it off before burial?

Answer

(Fatwa: 267/230=D/1430)

It is not proved to put such cloth. Also, it amounts to desecration of Quranic verses; therefore it is unlawful.
