What should one do if one has only Quran translations with Arabic AND the spefic local language available? I read that I must teach the non-Muslim about how to do wudu and ghusl - is this absolutely obligatory?

Because I don't think that such a person will fully understand the rules of wudu and ghusl, furthermore it could scare people away from reading Quran if we impose such strict (in the non-Muslim view) rules from the beginning.

An article on the Majlis relating to this.

HORRIFIC DESECRATION OF THE QURAN MAJEED
WARNING FOR THOSE WHO GIVE QUR’AANS TO PRISONERS AND NONMUSLIMS


A concerned Muslim prisoner from the U.S.A. writes: Assalaamu Alaikum Respected Brothers, many times I have read in “The Majlis” someone asking a question : “Is it permissible to give a non-muslim a copy of the Qur’an”. (We have always said that it is haraam – The Majlis) If I may, I would like to comment on this issue and to relate what I have personally witnessed, Insha’Allah.

I have been in prison now for 14 years and the past 12 years have been spent in solitary confinement. There have been countless times when I have overheard or seen a Muslim inmate giving a copy of the Qur’an to a non-muslim inmate who requested it. This is a huge problem! Not only as you state, are these non-muslims in a constant state of janaabat, and they will never respect the Qur’an as a Muslim would do, but these non-muslim shaitaans (devils) ask for these Qur’ans so they can intentionally desecrate and destroy them!

I once moved into a new cell and the inmate who lived there before me left a bunch of torn up “trash” on the floor under the bed. As I began to clean the cell and gather all the “trash” from under the bed, I quickly realized that the “trash” was all wet and smelled of urine. To my horror, as I looked, I discovered that all this torn up “trash” was in fact a copy of the English Qur’an – with the Arabic text! Someone had torn it into small pieces and then urinated all over the torn up pages.

Many other times I’ve seen inmate workers or guards sweeping trash along the walkway in front of the cells and there will be copies of the Qur’an in the trash – some of them intact, some torn up and missing pages. When I see these Qur’ans in the trash, I will plead with the guards to remove the Qur’an from the trash and give it to me. Sometimes they do, but often they refuse. I have taken in 7 copies of the Qur’an that someone had thrown into the trash heap and all of them have been in very bad condition – torn, pages ripped out, written in - vile/ vulgar statements written across the pages.

This is the sort of thing nonmuslims do with copies of the Qur’an and the so-called “Muslims” (These so-called ‘muslims’ are in reality Zindeeqs or worst - they are Munaafiqeen – The Majlis) who provide them with these Qur’ans are committing a vile, evil sin against Allah Ta’ala. They should be ashamed, (Zindeeqs have no shame –The Majlis). However, I can assure you they are not. Just like me, they have eyes to see and they have ears to hear – they see, hear, and witness these evil non-muslim devils engage in desecrating and destroying the Qur’an.

I have seen this vile evil first hand and I absolutely agree with you that copies of the Qur’an should never be given to a non-muslim. What purpose does the kuffaar have for a copy of the Qur’an? None! The Qur’an cannot serve any purpose for the kuffaar, because they do not believe the words of Allah Ta’ala. Imaan certainly must come first!

Thank you for the truth you declare and know that you all are in my Dua’. May Allah guide and protect you. Was- Salaam Abdur Rahmaan

OUR COMMENT
The Majlis has often warned Muslims to desist from the haraam practice of doling out Qur’aan Majeed copies to non- Muslims and to even Muslim prisoners. In fact, the Fuqaha have proclaimed it forbidden for the Mujaahideen to take Qur’aan copies with them on their Jihad campaigns.

Miscreant and evil so-called ‘Muslim’ propagation organizations consisting of modernists who are Zindeeqs specialize in perpetrating desecration of the Qur’aan Majeed. They are the worst shayaateen who dole out Qur’aans to non- Muslims, duping themselves and deceiving stupid Muslims with the argument of da’wat. The cases of Qur’aan desecration are numerous. How is it possible for non-Muslims who perpetually wallow in spiritual and physical janaabat to ever honour the Qur’aan Majeed wh en ev en p rof es s ed ‘muslims’ such as these zindeeq ‘da’wah’ workers have no respect for the holy Mushaf?

The clogged brains and darkened hearts of these Zindeeqs fail to understand that it is haraam for even a Muslim to recite the Qur’aan from memory whilst in the state of janaabat. How then can it ever be permissible to give the Qur’aan Majeed to those whose salient feature is perpetual janaabat and najaasat – spiritual and physical?

When Muslims are not allowed to touch the Qur’aan without wudhu, how can a person of true Imaan ever venture to disgrace and desecrate Allah’s Kalaam by giving it to a desecrator of the Qur’aan wallowing in janaabat and najaasat, consuming haraam, pork and liquor? This attitude of these modernists shayaateen testifies to their nifaaq. It is proof that they are not Muslim at heart._

Giving Quran to non Muslims is probably the dumbest form of dawah the "intellectual" has come up with as yet.

Most definitely - when Muslim laymen themselves can't understand it, what to say of the others?

Here in USA they give out copies of Quran like no problem to non Muslims even I have seen them handing out in parades.

May Allah SWT grant them nek taufeeq - In India too, there are organizations [you know who they mostly are] who'll send a copy of the Quran to non Muslims - all you need to is call them. But I don't know if those are in Arabic.

[clomoll]

Wait wait wait, have you not even heard of stories Non-Muslims becoming Muslims even after reading few passages from the Qur'an (from the translation i mean)? I heard so many youtube videos of non-Muslims asking guidance from Allah before reading the translation and Allah has shown them Hidayah.

I know we people are Abkarul-Abkaar and have lost but don't think that Allah cannot guide those who are reading His words, remember it is a source of guidance!

Wallahu A'lam

At one of my local masjids' yesterday, they were giving free Quran to only non-Muslims, I went asked and checked the copies if they contained Arabic, they didn't, just contained translations. So is this ok?

[eCw56dzY]

there was an event 10+ years ago where free Quran was being handed out to attendee with some other items. Later on, some of these Quran (translations) were found in various bins.
In the zeal to do dawah, one seems to caution to the air. Hence only give it to those who seek and ask for it and not anyone!!
If anyone is to be guided, they will receive guidance sooner or later.
The example of Umar RAD should be seen as an example. He was willing to go through little bit of difficulty to have access to excerpt of Quran.
Unfortunately some have relegated riligion to a club and as such have no problem treating the symbol of deen as such. Teletuby muslim syndrome.

Allahualam

[Htb48JBf]

But I could not do more than that, the ghayr muqallids who those people were will not listen.

May Allah SWT grant us the power to stop such things, ameen.
