Reading a verse of Quraan Sharif during Haidh
Question
If a verse of the Quraan Sharif forms part of a Hadith Sharif, what should a girl in the state of Haidh do? Must she read it with the intention that it is part of the Hadith Sharif, or must she omit it?
Answer
You may recite the verse (which is part of the Hadith) in the heart. However, you shouldn’t touch the area where the verse is written whilst in the state of Haidh. [Re:- Aap Ke Masaa’il Aur Unka Hal Pg.147 Vol.3]

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
