Ibn Bazz: Ruling on touching the Qur'an by a Junub



Ruling on touching the Qur'an by a Junub 
Q: Can a Junub (one who is in a state of major ritual impurity) read Qur'an from memory? If it is not permissible, can he listen to it? 
( Part No : 10, Page No: 152) 
A : It is not lawful for a Junub to recite the Noble Qur'an neither from a Mus­haf (Arabic Qur'an) nor by heart till he performs Ghusl (ritual bath following major ritual impurity) because it is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to not quit recitation except if he was Junub. 
But as for listening to the recitation of the Noble Qur'an, there is no harm in doing so, because this implies a great benefit on the condition that you do not touch the Mus­haf or recite from it.
