I don’t know anything that prevents this. The Hadeeth: “…and no one touches it (the Quran), except the pure”, some (scholars) say that is is mursal (hadeeth that does not mention a sahabee connecting the narration to the Messenger -salalahu alaahe wa saleem-) If this hadeeth is accepted due to its numerous narrations, then the meaning is, as mentioned by Ash Shawkanee in “Nail al Aw tar”: …and no one touches it except the pure, meaning: The Muslim, so the disbeliever should not be allowed to touch it. This is because the Messenger -salalahu alaahe wa saleem- forbid that a person travels with the Quaran to the land of the enemy. As for the statement of Allah: {No one touches it except the pure} surah al Waqi’ah:79, the meaning of the verse is: The Angels, as was mentioned by Imam Malik in his “Muwatta”. He said: This verse is explained by the statement of Allah: {Verily this is a reminder * for the one who wants to remember and reflect * in the Honorable pages * raised and purified * in the hands of the scribes (angels)} surah Abasa:11-15. So the meaning of the verse is the Angels. Allah also said: {It (The Quran) was not sent down by the shayateen * nor should this take place and they can not do so * they have been removed from hearing it} surah ash Shara’:210-212.
