In Muslim Culture, we give the Quran a lot of respect. Even so books, paper or anything that has Allah's name written on it we handle with respect. We show our respect to these items, especially to the Quran, by placing it on a high place, touching it while in a state of wudu, and among others not placing it on the floor directly. Since there isn't tables and chairs inside mosques and places of prayer, everyone, except the frail, sits on the floor. We use the bookstand to hold the Quran while not touching the floor, should someone want to read from it. The small bookstand is mostly used for madrassa classes.
