Using saliva to turn the pages of the mushaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some of the elderly, when they want to read from the mushaf and want to open a page, take a little of their saliva and use it to open it. He asks: Is this practice to be condemned?

Answer:
No, it is not condemned. His saliva is pure, and this is for a need.
