Taking Qur'an to the land of disbelievers
What is meant in the aayah LA YAMASSUHU ILLAAL
MUTAHHAROONA (Sooratul-Waaqi'ah, aayah 79), and what is
the ruling regarding taking the Qur'aan to the land of
the unbelievers?
Ans. What is referred to in the aayah is the angels, and
it is Allaah's informing us of these angels. It does not
refer to the Qur'aan but to the 'Lawhul-Mahfoo'
(Preserved Tablet). So this mushaf in the Preserved
Tablet is only touched by the Purified Ones, who are the
nearest angels. As for the mushaf which is with us, then
it is touched by the righteous, the wicked, the believer
and the unbeliever. So Allaah ta'aala does not refer here
to the people, good and bad, but to the nearest angels.
As regards travelling with the mushaf to the land of the
enemy, then it is not permissible unless it can be
protected from being handled wickedly or captured. So in
that case it is allowed to take it to their land and be
read and studied.
