Wuḍūʾ and Purification

Reading Quran on Phone Without Wudu

Shaykh Abd al-Aziz Aal-Shaykh states that reading the Quran from a phone is permissible even without wudu. Since the phone is not an actual mus’haf, the usual rules for handling the physical Quran do not apply, so there is no issue.

Questioner:

Is it permissible to read the Qurʿān from the phone without being in the state of purification?

Shaykh ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz Aal-Shaykh

There is no problem with this because you do not have the (actual) musḥaf  in your hand, it is only a phone.
