The ruling on reciting the Qur'an without wudu'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We begin this episode with a question from the listener Ziyad 'Abd al-Yahya from Yemen. He says: Is it permissible to recite the Noble Qur'an without wudu'? Thank you, Your Excellency the Shaykh.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. To proceed: It is permissible to recite the Qur'an if one is in a state of minor ritual impurity, which only requires wudu'. As for major ritual impurity, which requires the full ritual bath, it is not permissible for him to recite anything from the Qur'an until he performs the full ritual bath. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
