Question

A non-Muslim friend asks for a Qur'aan. May I give him an English translation in which appears the Arabic text as well?

Answer

It is haraam to give a Qur'aan copy to a non-Muslim. Even a Muslim may not touch the Qur'aan without wudhu nor may he recite it in the state of Janaabat. A non-Muslim is perpetually in the state of janaabat.
