He was asked:
If someone is not in a state of ritual purity and carries a copy of the Quran using his sleeves, either to read from it or to move it from one place to another, is that disliked?
He replied:
There is no harm in carrying a copy of the Quran using one’s sleeve, but one must not touch it with one’s hands.
He was asked:
How may someone who has a copy of the Quran with him carry it when he is not in a state of ritual purity?
He replied:
Anyone who has a copy of the Quran with him may carry it among his belongings, in his saddlebag, or in his baggage, whether those belongings belong to a man, a woman, or a child, and whether they are above or beneath it. Allah knows best.
وَسُئِلَ:
عَنْ الْإِنْسَانِ إذَا كَانَ عَلَى غَيْرِ طُهْرٍ وَحَمَلَ الْمُصْحَفَ بِأَكْمَامِهِ لِيَقْرَأَ بِهِ وَيَرْفَعَهُ مِنْ مَكَانٍ إلَى مَكَانٍ هَلْ يُكْرَهُ ذَلِكَ؟ .
فَأَجَابَ:
وَأَمَّا إذَا حَمَلَ الْإِنْسَانُ الْمُصْحَفَ بِكُمِّهِ فَلَا بَأْسَ وَلَكِنْ لَا يَمَسُّهُ بِيَدَيْهِ.
وَسُئِلَ:
عَمَّنْ مَعَهُ مُصْحَفٌ وَهُوَ عَلَى غَيْرِ طَهَارَةٍ كَيْفَ يَحْمِلُهُ؟ .
فَأَجَابَ:
وَمَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ مُصْحَفٌ فَلَهُ أَنْ يَحْمِلَهُ بَيْنَ قُمَاشِهِ وَفِي خَرْجِهِ وَحَمْلِهِ سَوَاءٌ كَانَ ذَلِكَ الْقُمَاشُ لِرَجُلِ أَوْ امْرَأَةٍ أَوْ صَبِيٍّ وَإِنْ كَانَ الْقُمَاشُ فَوْقَهُ أَوْ تَحْتَهُ. وَاَللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ.
