Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: There is a tafsir written with the complete Qur'an in it, and the tafsir is in its margins. Is this considered and called the Qur'an, such that it is not permissible for one in a state of ritual impurity to touch it?
Answer:
If the Qur'an is separated by a barrier, a rounded barrier on the mushaf around the verses, then what is inside the barrier is called the mushaf, and what is outside it is called tafsir. It is permissible for you to touch the tafsir, but you do not touch the verses. What is inside the barrier, you do not touch, because that is the mushaf. Yes.
