The Ruling on Dhikr and Reciting the Qur'an for One in a State of Major Ritual Impurity

Question:
Is it permissible to perform dhikr while cooking food, and while eating, when one is in a state of major ritual impurity?

Answer:
He should mention Allah, even if he is in a state of major ritual impurity, but he must not recite the Qur'an until he performs the full ritual bath. As for saying "Bismillah" (In the name of Allah), or saying "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah), or "Subhan Allah" (Glory be to Allah), that is good, even if he is in a state of major ritual impurity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to remember Allah in all his states, meaning even from a state of major ritual impurity.
