Is it permissible to listen to the Qur’an for one who is in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah), knowing that it is not permissible for him to touch the Mushaf or recite from it?
It is not permissible for a person in a state of major ritual impurity (junub) to recite the Quran or touch the Mus'haf (physical copy of the Quran). However, it is permissible for him to listen to the Quran without moving his tongue in recitation, because moving the tongue is considered recitation.
