Does the one in a state of major ritual impurity recite the Qur'an?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Does the one in a state of major ritual impurity recite the Qur'an?

The Shaykh : No, the one in a state of major ritual impurity does not recite the Qur'an, because the hadiths indicate that it is prohibited for him. However, if he recites a supplication, for example, he says:
[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds - الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
[Al-Fatihah 1:2]
, or he says while making a supplication:
[Who say], "Our Lord, let not our hearts deviate after You have guided us and grant us from Yourself mercy. Indeed, You are the Bestower. رَبَّنَا لا تُزِغْ قُلُوبَنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَيْتَنَا وَهَبْ لَنَا مِنْ لَدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ
[Ali 'Imran 3:8]
, there is nothing wrong with that. But if he intends to recite the Qur'an, it is not permissible.
