Question : Meaning the Qur'ans are lifted. Yes. A trust.
Answer : Yes, if the hadith is authentic, there is no contradiction, because people may read the Qur'ans without knowledge, as Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:78]. These are the ignorant ones who remain with the Qur'an but do not know it.
Answer : Yes, if the hadith is authentic, there is no contradiction, because people may read the Qur'ans without knowledge, as Allah the Exalted said:
And among them are unlettered ones who do not know the Scripture except in wishful thinking
