Ugh just when you think your not stressed enough, something has to happen. There is this really creepy guy that I unforuntaly used to go school with. Well he left a pocket size Quran at my work for me. When I asked him to talk it back he wouldn’t, and he just left it there. I really don’t want his Quran, he claims he’s had it since he was 2 or his grandma gave it to him or something. I just don’t want anything from this guy because I know how disparate he is and his plan is to use the Quran to talk to me. Anyway, how do I get rid of this Quran, should I just drop it off at a local masjid? Knowing him, he will ask for it back, but I shouldn’t care. I could understand if he was 16 years old and doing this but to be 25 and act this way, ugh. I just can’t believe how lame this situation is. I’m thinking of either dropping it off or mailing it to the masjid. What to do.
Sorry if this is thread is in the wrong section, I didn’t know where to post this.
Well next time u see him
tell him it’s that time of the month for u
therefore u should not be touching the Quran
and he should take it back.
Or better yet tell him u kinda have this disease where
u bleed all the time (god forbid), therefore u can not
keep it even if u want to. I know it’s lame but he started it!
Tell him you cant accept such gifts from non-mehrams because your family doesnt like it. If you want, you can tell him that you will donate it to the masjid where it will be used, insha'Allah. (If he refuses to take it back.)
I had a similar situation once where someone wanted to give me a gift, and family didnt like the idea, so I didnt end up taking it either. (I had posted about this here too.)
You may not liek the guy n he may be creepy but go easy on him. Let him down easy because hearing a No from someone u “like like” can be emotionally traumatizing depending on how much they like u. Just place him in ur shoe, n if u liked someone n they were u kno “NOT nice” to u.. … This guy must really liek u if he gave u that quran that was so special to him, It will do a number on him knowin tat quran was just donated.. Its better to talk to him n let him know u dont want it..
Dont avoid talkin to him, because he may not get the message. Tell him that it was a sweet gesture but u really cant take it like someone said, n ur family n ur fiance wouldnt apprieciate it. Hopefully, he will move on knowin ure taken n nuthing more can happen instead of wondering whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Godddddddd whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!
Ive had my share of creepy guys who follow around, but i rathar not take a panga from them by bein rude (learned it the hard way)

He shouldn't be. Just tell him you don't like gifts and therefore appreciate it if he took it back. If he resists, just take it and keep it at home. Afterall, it's Quran, anybody can read it. You shouldn't panic about it. If in the future he says something about giving you Quran as a gift and you don't talk to him, tell him to grow up.
just give it back, and tell him you dont need it. Tell him he can have it back if he wants, otherwise u,d be donating it to a masjid. if you know his address,,, just post the quran back with a note saying in clear words that ur not interested and that he isnt ur type,,,, dont lead such guys on by being too nice.
You should get an older brother or cousin or even your dad....have an elder male from your family return the Koran to this guy. Upon returning, the elder male can say "well, that was a very nice gesture but we do not appreciate it and do not want to persue a further relationship. But thank you for your kind gesture." or something along those lines. I would not take it lightly that this guy gave it to you with a purpose in mind and his purpose needs to be quashed if you want it to be quashed. Not that I'm implying that he's evil or anything but it seems that he does have an ulterior motive...that is what needs to be addressed and should be done by an elder male from your family.
