Question:
What is the ruling on taking the mushaf, that is, the Qur'an, with the left hand?
Answer:
He owes nothing if he did not intend to insult it, for it is a matter of forgiveness. Whether he takes it with the right hand or the left, he has done nothing wrong, but taking it with the right hand is better as a sign of respect for it, provided he did not intend to insult it or treat it with ill regard.
