Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. This brother asks, Shaykh, about the ruling on touching the mushaf without ritual purity, and what the nature of the purity is: istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) or wudu' (the ablution for prayer)?
Answer:
It is not permissible to touch the mushaf directly without ritual purity, based on the hadith in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saidMuwatta Malik 15:1 Therefore, one should not touch the mushaf, whether touching the paper, the writing, or even the leather cover of the mushaf.
One should not touch it unless he is in a state of purity. However, if the mushaf is in a box, a chest, a leather cover, or something similar, touching it without direct contact is permissible. This is what is required regarding the noble mushaf. One must be pure from hadath (a state of minor or major ritual impurity) by being in a state of wudu' and not being in a state of janabah (major ritual impurity). One must be pure from both janabah and the minor hadath. One must have performed ghusl (the full ritual bath) for janabah, which is the major hadath, and one must have performed wudu' for the minor hadath. Yes.
