Permanent magnetism cannot be obtained using a soft iron case. Hence, the magnetic compass is not made by arranging magnetic needle inside a soft iron.

Answer:

The casing of a magnetic compass is made of aluminium because aluminium is  a non-magnetic metal. Hence, it will not affect the working of compass as any  other magnetic material, like iron will attract the magnetic needle and can cause  the compass to show a wrong direction.
