Question Summary: Touching the screen of a digital Quran Question Detail:
I have an iPod Touch screen player. i just download a Quran in it in jpeg format, because i want to recite when i m in the way. I always try to have Wudhu but some i cant do wudhu. In that case can i touch the screen of Quran.
Answer :
You should avoid touching the screen of the iPod if you are not in the state of Wudū’. The Fuqahā’ (Jurists) have mentioned that it is not permissible to touch the Holy Qur'ān, whether the verses are written in an actual book like a proper Mushaf, or if they are written on a wall or inscribed on a coin etc. Thus, the same ruling will apply to an iPod screen. كذا الوضوء فرض ( لمس المصحف ولو آية ) مكتوبة على درهم أو حائط لقوله تعالى " لا يمسه إلا المطهرون" وسواء الكتابة والبياض وقال بعض مشايخنا إنما يكره للمحدث مس الموضع المكتوب دون الحواشي لأنه لم يمس القرآن حقيقة والصحيح أن مسها كمس المكتوب (مراقي الفلاح مع حاشية الطحطاوي ص 82 , العلمية) And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best Ml.
