The ruling on reading in the previous revealed books other than the Qur'an

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible to read in the revealed books, or what are called the holy books, other than the Qur'an?

Answer:
No, do not read in them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) saw some papers from the Torah with 'Umar and became angry with him ? So the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) rebuked him. It is not permissible to circulate the previous books, as they are abrogated and concluded. It is not permissible for us to circulate them, except for a person firmly grounded in knowledge who wants to refute them and clarify their misguidance. As for the one who says, "By Allah, I am refuting this for the sake of looking into it," we say: No, it is not this kind of looking into it; this is a defective looking into it. Yes.
