The Janabah Reading the Qur'an and Touching the Mushaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, we have received many questions regarding the janabah reading the Qur'an, O Honorable Shaykh, and what is the ruling on touching the mushaf?
Answer:
The janabah does not read the Qur'an, nor a single verse. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was prevented by the state of janabah from reading the Qur'an until he performed ghusl. Likewise, he does not touch the mushaf, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), meaning he does not touch it directly, based on his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)Muwatta Malik 15:1 However, if he touches it through a barrier, such as socks on his hand, or through a ruler or a pen, there is no harm in that. Yes. May Allah reward you.

no-one should touch the Qur'an unless he was pure
لا يمس القرآن إلا طاهر
