-
U didnt get it, Q_student. Read my post again. By tha way, u think salat is prayer?

Peace
No matter what meaning you give to salaat ,you have to do "wadoo" before it, according to Quran.
RegardsDude, read the post again.
He was questioning the meaning of "salah" as "committment", because it sounds stupid making ablution before doing committments. -
yes you must make ablution before you shake hands with me angel
Do we have to perform wudu before touching the quran?

You can if you want to, but I dont see that ordained anywhere in the Quran.

There is a verse that says "none can grasp/touch it except the clean/pure". Some interpret that to mean physically clean, hence washing. It can also be figurative, as in pure/sincere. See 5677-79. Personally, I think it is the latter meaning in this instance.
Since the regular/timed salat/bond requires prior ablution and likely involves reading and therefore touching The Quran, it is possible this association came into being, and became ritualised/over-stated, hence whenever we touch The Quran we must be clean. Strictly speaking, it is only true for pre-salat/bond.
So, in summary, there is leeway/scope for the understanding you refer to, but it is the lesser likely option. I have not studied this topic in detail however.

Q 2. Can we read the Qur?an without being in the state of Wudu, but of course being neat and clean?
A 2. For a Muslim the real criteria of being neat and clean is to be Tahir. Taharah is more than being neat and clean. A person is generally considered neat and clean in the society even if he has passed some urine or stool and then wiped himself and washed his hands. But according to the Shari?ah, he is not Tahir. He has to make Wudu to be fully clean and Tahir. As far as the reading of the Qur?an is concerned, it is very important that one should touch the Book of Allah with great respect and reverence and should be in a state of Taharah. It is forbidden (Haram) to read the Qur?an when a person is Junub (after sexual intercourse or wet dream) until he/she takes a full bath. Women in their menses or post-natal bleeding (Hayd and Nifas) can read the Qur?an from memory, but should not touch it, except for female teachers and students who are allowed to touch the Qur?an, as a special case (according to Imam Malik). It is highly recommended and very much emphasized that Muslims males and females always touch the
Qur?an with Wudu. Allah says about the Qur?an, ?None touches it except those who are pure.? (al-Waqi?ah 5679) Although this Ayah is about the angels, but our jurists say that if the most pure angels touch the Qur?an, then human beings should also do that in the state of full purity.
