Is it permissible for a non-Muslim to touch a translation of the meanings of the Noble Qur’an in English?

There is no objection to a disbeliever touching a translation of the meanings of the Holy Quran into different languages, because it is an interpretation of the meanings of the Quran and does not hold the ruling of the Quran. Rather, it holds the ruling of interpretation, and books of interpretation may be touched by a disbeliever or one who is not in a state of ritual purity.
