Is it permissible to write in the margins of the mushaf for the sake of learning?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about writing in the mushaf. Writing in the mushaf means writing the tafsir of the verse in the margin.

Answer:
Or writing the benefits derived from the verse. The mushaf is kept pure; nothing is written in it. If you want to write something, write it in a notebook outside the mushaf, so that people's words do not mix with the words of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Perhaps an ignorant person will come along, not knowing, and assume that this writing is part of the Qur'an. So the mushaf is kept pure; nothing is written with it. Yes.
