It is permissible to hang some papers on the wall, especially if there is a benefit in it, such as a supplication (du'a). This does not fall under the prohibition of covering walls with draperies, because covering them with draperies involves wasting money and inviting arrogance. This is supported by the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Indeed, Allah has not commanded us to clothe stones and clay."
