Ruling on taking the mushaf during voluntary prayer to look up a verse that was difficult

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Sometimes during voluntary prayer, I find a verse difficult to recite, so I move and take the mushaf to look for it in order to complete the recitation. Is this action permissible?

Answer:
No, there is no need for that. If a verse is difficult for you, read the one that follows it, except for al-Fatihah; you do not leave anything of al-Fatihah. As for other than al-Fatihah, it is permissible if a verse is unclear to you to read the one that follows and continue the recitation; there is no need to take the mushaf.
