A Person In A Minor State Of Impurity May Not Touch The Qur?aan
|
Question:
If a person is in a minor state of impurity ? such as someone who passes wind, urinates, of defecates ? may he recite the Qur?aan?
|
Answer:
Such a person may recite but not touch the Mushaf, for complete purification is not one of the requisites for reciting the Qur?aan. On the other hand, a person who is Junub may neither touch nor recite the Qur?aan until he performs Ghusl, yet he may still recite certain invocations from the Qur?aan, such as, ?Bismillah-ir-Rahmaan-ir-Raheem,? or when he is afflicted, ?Indeed we belong to Allaah, and indeed, to Him are we returning.?
