Is it considered disbelief for my sister to place the three volumes of the Quran one on top of the other, with a box of underwear behind them that may sometimes touch them, or for clothes to be scattered in such a way that they touch the books, or for some clothes to remain visible and touching the book from behind? And what is the ruling on placing underwear on top of books when organizing the closet?

What you have mentioned is not disbelief (kufr), nor does it involve disrespecting the Qur’an. However, your sister should not intentionally place any clothes on top of the Qur’an. We caution you against obsessive thoughts (waswas) and yielding to them, due to their danger to a person’s religion and worldly life.
