What is the ruling on a person in a state of major ritual impurity reciting the Qur'an with the intention of dhikr (remembrance of Allah) rather than recitation?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a person in a state of major ritual impurity intends by his recitation of the Qur'an to perform dhikr (remembrance of Allah). What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
It is not permissible to recite the Qur'an while in a state of major ritual impurity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to refrain from reciting the Qur'an until he performed the full ritual bath from major ritual impurity. Yes.
