Is it obligatory to inspect papers after shredding them with a machine to ensure that no name of Allah remains on them before destroying them without burning them?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the paper shredder does not completely destroy the words and letters containing the name of Allah Almighty, then these papers must be disposed of by burying or burning them instead of merely shredding them with the machine, in order to ensure that the name of Allah is not treated disrespectfully.
