The Four Schools of Thought and most scholars prohibit touching the (copy of the Qur’an) for one who is in a state of minor ritual impurity (), basing their argument on the of Amr ibn Hazm: "None shall touch the Qur'an except one who is in a state of purity." Imam Ahmad said that the Prophet, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, wrote this Hadith, and it is also the saying of Salman al-Farsi and Ibn Umar. Whoever does not find water or is unable to use it, should perform (dry ablution) in order to touch the Mushaf.
