‘None touch it except the purified’
This can mean that only those who have not strayed from the original path are capable of connecting with and resonating with its profound meaning.
“Touching”: there are two aspects to this verb: every time one touches, the one touched is also a ‘toucher’, and every toucher is also the one touched.
To touch the Quran is also to be touched by it.
So, rather than a matter of clean hands and dirty hands, we can interpret this as meaning that for those whose hearts have not yet connected with the heart of the book, that connection simply will not occur.
