A Menstruating Woman Holding a Textbook Containing Quranic Verses

Question
What is the ruling on a menstruating woman holding a textbook with Quranic verses in her hand, and also reading from it?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The Quranic verses in the textbook are few; they are less than in other writings, and thus it is permissible to touch and carry it by a menstruating woman or someone who is not in a state of purity, as it is not considered the Quran. As for reading, she can read the word or two for educational purposes and then stop. And God knows best.
