Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Are there conditions for reciting the Qur'an, such as facing the qiblah, or not?
The Shaykh : Facing the qiblah is not a condition for reciting the Qur'an, nor is it a condition that a person be in a state of ritual purity, except if he is reciting from the mushaf. In that case, he must not touch the mushaf unless he is in a state of ritual purity. If he wishes to read from the mushaf while not in a state of ritual purity, let him place a barrier between himself and the mushaf, such as a handkerchief or something else, and let him read. However, a person in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah) is not permitted to recite the Qur'an until he performs the full ritual bath (ghusl). Yes.
