(Chapter on Purity of Touching the Qur’an) [Is purity a condition for touching the Qur’an]
The scholars differed as to whether purity is a condition for touching the Qur’an. Or not, so some people made it obligatory and some people forbade it, and I say that it is forbidden, except that doing it with purity is better, I mean touching the Qur’an.
( He reached the internal ruling on that )
Is the evidence respected out of respect for the signified? With us, yes, the evidence is respected out of respect for the signified, but with others it is not necessary, because the evidence opposes the signified, so they do not go together. If the evidence is respected, it is for another matter, not because it is evidence of a respectable person, and the Qur’an is evidence of the word of God, and we have been commanded to respect it and touch it in order to purify it from respecting it .

[ The world may be taken as evidence of God ]
Know that we may take the world as evidence of God and be astonished by what the name “world” includes. Praiseworthy and blameworthy. We may take Pharaoh and the arrogant like him as evidence of the existence of the Maker, because he is his workmanship, and it is agreed that his designation indicates the specificity, and he should not be respected, rather he should be hated and not forbidden. We may take Moses, peace be upon him, in that his workmanship is evidence of the existence of the Maker, and it is agreed that his designation indicates the specificity . /p>
