The questioner:
Is it permissible for one who is praying a voluntary prayer to read from the Mushaf?
The Shaykh:
It is permissible; the permissibility is there, but there is no need for the Mushaf, because one reads whatever is easy for him of the Qur'an. Unless he is praying the night prayer and lengthens the recitation; in the night prayer, there is no harm in taking the Mushaf. As for the ordinary voluntary prayers, there is no need to carry the Mushaf; he reads the short surahs and whatever he has memorized. Yes.
