The ruling on holding the Qur'an in the left hand
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks, Shaykh, and says: Is there any issue with holding the Noble Qur'an in the left hand while reading it? And if there is no issue, but some people disapprove of it, what should I say to them?
Answer:
Yes, the recommended and better practice is to hold the Qur'an in your right hand, unless there is an excuse. If you have an excuse, such as being unable to move your right hand, or if it is amputated, or something similar, then you hold it in your left hand. Yes.
