Also non-muslims (including males) are not allowed to touch the mushaf unless they purify themselves which is what happened in the case when Umar ibn Khattab (RA) accepted Islam."<br /><br />- so menstruating women are dirty, people who have just had sex are filthy, and those gosh darn non muslims... those are the filthiest. Got it. Thanks, I was keeping it to the menstruating part....because Islam does a have a specific hate on for women, esp those menstruating types. But now that you mention it, it totally has a hate on for non muslims and sex in general too. Good points. :) <br /><br />"You are an unclean idolater, and I cannot allow you to touch the Word of God.” - Now that's an awful thing to say...jeez. Someone's beliefs make them less clean than another person? These are the scriptural examples we are supposed to live by? No thanks.

I read this article of yours and whil...Hi Eiynah! <br /><br />I read this article of yours and while it is true that women can't touch the mushaf during her periods, she can surely touch the JUZ (or para) as we say in Urdu because it is not part of the whole Quran. So if a woman wishes to read the Quran she can just take the sipara with her and read from it. Also the quote mentions: "No one should touch the Qur’aan except one who is taahir (pure)." which specifically implies both men and women who are impure. Also as mentioned above, Janaabah means post sex impurity, so it applies to men as well as women. Also non-muslims (including males) are not allowed to touch the mushaf unless they purify themselves which is what happened in the case when Umar ibn Khattab (RA) accepted Islam.<br /><br />(He suddenly appeared to relent, and then in a changed tone asked her to show him what she was reading. She sensed a change in him but said: “You are an unclean idolater, and I cannot allow you to touch the Word of God.”<br /><br />Umar immediately went away, washed himself, returned to his sister's home, read the text of Qur'an, and then went to the house of Arqam where he formally accepted Islam.)<br /><br />Please donot take this as a hate comment. I was just merely trying to clarify my point here.<br /><br />:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
