Q: I have some questions regarding laughing aloud (such that another person can here you) in salaah. I have seen multiple views and do not know which one is correct.
1. Can you touch the Quraan afterwards (i.e. is it hadath or not)?
2. For those who say it is for reprimanding the person, not hadath, according to them can you make tawaaf with that wudhu, or is tawaaf similar to salaah therefore tawaaf is invalid with that wudhu?
A: If one laughs aloud during salaah, his salaah and wudu will break.
In the state of hadath it is not permissible to touch the Quraan Majeed. Hence, if one's wudu breaks through laughing aloud in salaah, it will not be permissible for him to touch the Quraan Majeed or make tawaaf unless he renews his wudu.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
