Merely touching something after touching the Quraan Shareef does not make it worthy of respect

Q: My question is that while recitation of Quran Shareef, I touch holy verses by my finger, during this I touch my mobile phone or keychain with same hand and finger, does the mobile and keychain also become respectful? Or its ok to keep them on the floor or anywhere?

A: Merely touching them after touching the Quraan Shareef does not make them worthy of respect. Hence, they can be left on the floor.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
