The answer

It is not permissible for a menstruating woman to touch the directly without a barrier, according to the consensus of jurists, though the Malikis made an exception for a female teacher or student to touch a part of it. As for what happened out of forgetfulness, there is no sin in it. Regarding touching it with a barrier, such as gloves, there is a difference of opinion. The Shafi'is and Malikis prohibit it, while the Hanbalis and Hanafis permit it. It is preferable to avoid touching the Mushaf before purification from menstruation, even with a barrier, out of consideration for the opinion of prohibition and as a precaution in religion.
