Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on taking the mushaf, that is, the Qur'an, with the left hand?
Answer:
He owes nothing if his intention was to insult, for it is a forgiven act. He may take it with his right hand or his left, as long as he does not take anything from it, but taking it with the right hand is better as a sign of respect for him, provided his intention was to insult and he did not take anything from it.
