I have Al Qur'an software installed in my Blackberry, complete with translations, tafseer and recitation.
Does my Blackberry now qualify as a mushaf?
I also have hadiths books application in it as well.
Here's my dilemma: I almost always have my blackberry with me in my pants pocket whenever I'm out of house or office and so unavoidably I still have it with me whenever I go to the toilet. I am concerned that this is not allowed. Of course I never turn on those applications when I'm in filthy places, but what is the ruling on this issue?
I understand respect is a good thing, but unfortunately, Muslim Ummah has been put in the dilemma to respect the holy book in such a way, we have kept it on the very high places in our home/lives and never even glance on it. Quran is revealed to recite, understand (Walaqad yasarnal Quraana lizzikar, fahal mim mudakkir).
When there is nothing left but Allah that is when you find out that Allah is all you need.
I agree. Its electronic format made up of basically 0s and 1s. Just do not open the application in the washroom.
Help me to escape from this existence
I yearn for an answer... can you help me?
I'm drowning in a sea of abused visions and shattered dreams
In somnolent illusion... I'm paralyzed
These mobile phones in which Qur’aan is put in written or recorded form do not come under the same ruling as the Mus-haf, so it is permissible to touch them without having purified oneself and it is permissible to take them into the washroom with one, because writing Qur’aan on the mobile phone is not like writing it in a Mus-haf. It takes the form of waves that appear and disappear, and its letters are not fixed, and the mobile phone may contain Qur’aan and other things.
This reminds me of:
Once someone asked Sh. Abdullah Al-mutalk(Arab sheikh).
Sorry can't translate but found it funny
في أحد البرامج أتصل عليه مستفتي وقال يا شيخ :
( انا ادخل بالجوال في دورة المياه ومخزن فيه القرآن الكريم )
هل يجوز ذلك ؟
جاوبه الشيخ المطلق لابأس !!
كرر السؤال فقال : لكن فيه القران مخزن ؟؟!!
قال الشيخ : يا أخى لا بأس هو محفوظ في ذاكرة الجهاز !
رد السائل بقوله : هذا القرآن يا شيخ هل يجوز أن يدخل دورة المياة !!!؟؟
قال الشيخ : أنت حافظ شي من القرآن؟
جاوب السائل : نعم يا شيخ حافظ الكثير .
قال الشيخ :
خلاص اذا بغيت تدخل دورة المياه خل مخك برا
Three simple rules in life:
1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
