The questioner:
And among the things that do not cease by the skin of the truth. No, no, they do not cease by the skin of the truth. The importance of the matter is that they think about it. This is the skin of the truth, from the most of the supplication and the supplication.
The Shaykh:
His saying (peace and blessings be upon him): "No one touches the mushaf except one who is in a state of ritual purity," because the hand touches the mushaf, because the mushaf is a physical object. The mushaf is a physical object; the hand in a state of major ritual impurity does not touch it, unlike reciting the Qur'an by mere utterance with the tongue, utterance with the tongue and performance with the tongue without touching anything, yes.
Because there is a distinction, and even if we did not know, even if we did not know the distinction and we do not know the distinction, we act according to the hadith. His saying (peace and blessings be upon him) in the hadith of 'Amr ibn Hazm: "No one touches the Qur'an except one who is in a state of ritual purity." This is how the hadith came: "No one touches the Qur'an except one who is in a state of ritual purity." This prohibits touching the mushaf, yes, and he may recite from memory, yes.
