Can Qur’an Sharif be recited while leaning against a bed headboard?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Is it permissible to recite Qur’an Sharif while leaning against the headboard of one’s bed?

Answer

(Fatwa: 2304/1894=B/1429)

If there is any problem, there is no wrong in reciting the Quran while leaning against headboard:

وقال الحافظ ابن کثیر: اي لایکلف أحدا فوق طاقتہ و ھذا من لطفہ تعالی بخلقہ و رأفتہ بھم وإحسانہ إلیھم (تفسیر ابن کثیر 1:457)

But, if one does it without any problem and excuse, then it is against the etiquettes and curtsey:

ولا تقعدوا علی مکان أرفع مما علیہ القرآن (حیوۃ المسلمین 54)

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
