The questioner : What is the ruling on touching the mushaf without ritual purity?
The Shaykh : As for touching the mushaf, the stronger position is that of the majority: it is not permissible to touch the mushaf except with wudu'. If one needs to read from the mushaf and is not in a state of wudu', he should wear gloves or place a handkerchief over the mushaf so that he does not touch it directly. Is that clear?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah.
