Is it permissible to write verses from the Holy Qur’an on a dome on the first floor of a mosque, while people walk and use the second floor above it?

It is permissible to write the Qur’an on a dome inside the mosque if it does not lead to its desecration, such as when worshipers are on the second floor. Scholars have disliked writing the Qur’an in a place where there is a presumption of desecration. However, placing belongings on something that contains Qur’an or knowledge is not forbidden, as there is no desecration in that.
