Is it permissible to carry the Holy Qur’an with tayammum for one who is in a state of janabah and cannot perform ghusl every day due to an allergy that causes cold-like symptoms?
A person in a state of major ritual impurity (junub) is not permitted to recite the Qur’an or touch the Mus'haf until they perform (ritual bath). This is based on the statement of Ali ibn Abi Talib, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to teach us the Qur’an as long as he was not in a state of major ritual impurity." And his saying: "Recite the Qur’an as long as none of you is in a state of major ritual impurity. If he is afflicted with major ritual impurity, then not even a single letter." If one cannot find water or is unable to perform ghusl, then they should perform (dry ablution), and in that case, it is permissible for them to recite the Qur’an and touch the Mus'haf with that tayammum.
