Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْهَى أَنْ يُسَافَرَ بِالْقُرْآنِ إِلَى أَرْضِ الْعَدُوِّ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَنَالَهُ الْعَدُوُّ .

Muḥammad ibn Rumḥ informed us: al-Layth ibn Saʿd informed us, from Nāfiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar, from the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, that he used to forbid taking the Qurʾān into enemy territory for fear that the enemy might seize it.
