Is it permissible to travel with the Qur'an to disbelieving countries?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: Is it permissible for a person to travel with the Qur'an to disbelieving countries where there is no enmity or war between them and the Muslims?

Answer:
If he will keep it safe, or if there are Muslim communities or Islamic centers there, there is nothing wrong with it. But if it is exposed to insult and the disbelievers can get hold of it, it is not permissible.
