may be mishandled?.

Praise be to Allaah.
Yes, if the Mus-haf becomes worn out and there is the fear that it may
be mishandled and may reach a state where itcannot be read and
benefited from, there is nothing wrong with burning it or burying it
in pure earth, because both were done by the Sahaabah (may Allaah be
pleased with them). They buried Mus-hafs and they also burned them,
when the Sahaabah united the people upon a single Mus-haf, which was
the Mus-haf of 'Uthmaan (mayAllaah be pleased with him), and they
burned all other Mus-hafs.
If a Mus-haf has reached a state where it cannot be benefited from
because it has become worn out, then it should either be buried in a
pure place, or be burned. Both were done by the companions of the
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
