Is it permissible to read the Quran without performing ablution?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Is it allowed to read quran without wudhu while reading from a website etc? There are many websites that provides full quran for the people to read online. So, when you read quran in this way do you need to have wudhu or not when reading quran using standard computers? What is the rule if we read using mobile equipments such as iphones, other mobile phones or even touch screen computers? 

Answer

(Fatwa: 1032/812/D=1431)

(1) Yes, it is allowed to do recitation but there is more reward in reciting in the state of wudhu. However, one should not touch the screen while reciting without wudhu.
(2) Mobile too carries the same ruling.
