The Ruling on Giving a Disbeliever a Mushaf and Allowing Him Access to It

Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: Honorable Shaykh, how is the ritual bath performed for a non-Muslim who requests a page containing verses from the Qur'an to read them?

Answer:
The Muslim's statement that one cannot be given access to the Qur'an, that one is not given a page or a mushaf, is based on the saying of Allah the Exalted: It is not permissible to give a disbeliever a mushaf, or to allow him access to the mushaf, or to the pages of the mushaf, or to a page from the mushaf. However, if he wants to hear the Qur'an, it is read to him; the Muslim reads it to him while he listens. The saying of Allah the Exalted: "And if he desires of it," means that if the disbeliever requests to hear the Qur'an, he is allowed to hear the Qur'an. But if he asks us for a mushaf or part of a mushaf, we do not allow him access to it. Yes.
