Can i read and learn Surah's without Wudhu?

[abbas_ali]

Salaam all,

I want to learn some new Surah's but i wanted to ask can i read these without Wudha?

Also just to recite Surah's in my head, do i require Wudha for this? Since often i do not have Wudha in the middle of the day but i am reciting in my head.

Jazakallahkhair

When touching the Qura'an it is necessary to have Wudhu, however when reciting without touching the Qura'an i.e in your head then Wudhu is not required.

Jazak Allahbrother Abdul baari BUT it seems that theasking brother is not asking about the Arabic Mushaf . I think he is asking about the traslation , anyway.. I posted the follwong answer to clear the diffrence between the Arabic Mushaf and the translation :

By the Way the sister who asked this Question embraced Islam Allhamdulillah,

the Question :

Clever guess on the part of a Christian woman

Assalamu Alaikum,
I am a Christian who is very interested in Islam and I am currently reading a translation of the Koran in my language. I know that women should not touch the Koran while having their menses but since translations are not regarded as the word of God and therefore not equal to the Arabic text, I'd like to know if not touching the Koran during menses also applies to translations.
Thank you very much for your help

the answer :

Praise be to Allaah.

You have hit the nail on the head: your guess is correct. A translation is not like the Mus-haf (Arabic text of the Qur’aan) and the same rules do not apply. A translation is like a tafseer (commentary), and so a menstruating woman is allowed to touch it. Your analysis of this matter demonstrates astute reasoning and excellent thinking skills, which makes us feel that you will soon embrace Islam; may Allaah guide you to all good.

How about with the tafseer of Quran with its translation side by side, do we need to perform wudhu' as well? Thanks in advance.
