The ruling on reading the Qur'an from a mobile phone and entering the bathroom with it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Mهند says to the honorable Shaykh, may Allah bless him: Does reading the Qur'an from a mobile phone require ritual purity? What is the ruling on placing or copying the Qur'an on a mobile phone? And is it permissible to enter the restrooms with it?
Answer:
It is permissible to read the Qur'an from what is written on the mobile phone, but it does not have the ruling of a mushaf (written copy of the Qur'an) regarding touching it while in a state of ritual impurity. One may touch the mobile phone while in a state of ritual impurity and read from it, because it is not a mushaf and does not take on the ruling of a mushaf. There is no harm in entering the bathroom with it, because it is a mobile phone and not a mushaf. Yes.
