A079

Surah: 056 - Ayah: 079

56:79

God says: "No one can touch it (the Qur'an) except the pure ones". (56:79). This never means that an impure person cannot touch the Qur'an externally. It rather means that except for those whose hearts are pure, no one has access to the spirituality, luminosity and tawili wisdom of the Qur'an. This shows that the hearts of the exalted Ahl-i bayt were illumined by the light of the Qur'an. For the Qur'an itself testifies that God, according to the verse of purification (33:33), has duly purified them and all pure Imams are from the Ahl-i bayt.
