Asalamoalaikum, Dear Mufti Sahab. Please guide us about the following problem:\"Can The Holly Quran be given to a non Muslim for study\" In China Christian distribute Bible in Chinese people, and people like Quran. Can a Muslim give a copy of Holly Quran to a non Muslim.
If there is no fear of disrespect and also if there is a hope of getting Guidance it is allowed to teach or give the Qur’an Shareef to a non-Muslim for the purpose of perusing only if he touches or reads it after getting purified. It is possible that he could even come to the correct path.
قال الله تعالى : {لَا يَمَسُّهُ إِلَّا الْمُطَهَّرُونَ } [الواقعة: 79]
و في الفتاوى الهندية: قال أبو حنيفة رحمه الله تعالى أعلم النصراني الفقه والقرآن لعله يهتدي ولا يمس المصحف وإن اغتسل ثم مس لا بأس كذا في الملتقط اھ (5/ 323)
و في الدر المختار: ويمنع النصراني من مسه، وجوزه محمد إذا اغتسل ولا بأس بتعليمه القرآن والفقه عسى يهتدي اھ (1/ 177) والله اعلم بالصواب
