Page 46 (Partial)

34. It is not makruh to write the Qur'ân (without wudhu) as long as the written portion is not touched and only the blank places are touched. But according to Imam Muhammad (rahmatullahi alayhi) even the blank place cannot be touched. As a precaution, this is best. The first ruling was according to Imam Abu Yusuf (rahmatullahi alayhi). The same difference of opinion exists in the previous mas'ala as well. This rule only applies to anything other than the Qur'ân, such as a piece of paper, cloth, etc. on which some verse is written and the balance of it is blank.
35. It is not makruh to give the Qur'ân to immature children if they are in a state which requires wudhu.
36. As regards heavenly books other than the Qur'ân, such as Torah, Zabur and Injil; it is makruh to touch only those places where something is written without wudhu. To touch the blank places is not makruh. The same rule applies to those verses of the Qur'ân whose recitation has been abrogated or cancelled.
37. After having made wudhu one has a doubt that a part has not been washed but he does not know exactly which part it was. In order to get rid of this doubt, he should wash his left foot. Similarly, if in the midst of making wudhu he has a doubt, then in such a case, he should wash the last part. For example, if after washing the hands up to the elbows he has a doubt, then he should wash his face. Or, while washing the feet he has a doubt, then he should wash his hands up to his elbows. All this will apply when a person has such doubts occasionally. As for the person who experiences these doubts most of the time, he should not worry about them but regard his wudhu as complete.
38. It is not proper to make wudhu on the floor of the musjid. But if it is made in such a way that it does not fall on the floor of the musjid, then there is no harm in it. The carelessness of dropping water on the musjid floor is prevalent in many places.
