No such restriction is imposed in the Grand Qur'aan. Only prohibition is not to pick up the hard copy for reading while one is in a state immediately after matrimonial physical association or .................

so, ebook is ok?

yes reference please.

ok, thanks

Peace,
Respectfully.

I also ask sunnis...oops, pagans the same question regarding the ablution and they always quote obey Allah SWT and obey the messenger and then they add that obediance to messenger means follow his hadith and his sunna.

When i ask why is their version of ablution split into two books, they start talking about everythihng else, except that.

They will always - always - use this obey Allah SWT and obey the messenger - as a portal into the world where they can and will do as they please and as they see fit and just to not follow The Quran, because according to most pagans (yes, sunnis) nobody truly and really understand The Quran except messenger/prophet Muhamamd. And scholars and sheiks of course.

They will also add that The Quran was not given to all humans but it was given to messenger/prophet Muhammad so he can explain it to us.

Like we're that dumb. Okay, some humans can be dumb sometimes but humans are actually pretty smart.

Peace.

I am a new muslim, but to be sure your whimsical labeling of Sunnis as Pagans seems out of line. Who gave u the authority to do that? Dont you think it is better to be fearful of God and just worry about yourself. Leave it be. Im kinda hurt to see mean spirited folks here. Brother, take a deep breath and remeber Allah created us all. Whats ur beef?

do we have to be in Wudu to read the quran.

I wanna read it on my ebook reader Kindle, do I have to have wudu?

Please pardon my ignorance and I just dont have the time to go through all these posts but was wondering ur thoughts on a few things.

I recently submitted to Islam. I found Humza Yusuf as a role model. Indeed, he is my sheikh and respect him greatly.

Now, his view is that we should not read the quran and try to interpert it OURSELVES. Indeed, we may interpert it wrong. We do not have the erudite understanding of our scholars and should defer interpertation of what Allah may be saying (if it is a difficult ayiyah) to the scholars who can better put it into context and have studied it.

I dont know now what to think. Here on this webside there seems to be a lot more room for ones own understanding, but I am very scared to go with the opinion of anyone other than Sheikh Humza for now as I learn more about my religion.

sorry, I may just be thinking aloud and I hope u forgive me if my questions did not make sense.

what are your thoughts. I would like to know because I am going to go thru my first English Quran and dont know which one to choose. I am thinking Cleary or Abbas.

thanks again.
