The Imam Reading from the Mushaf in the Obligatory Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you, the imam who leads us in the obligatory prayer, specifically the Fajr prayer, reads from the mushaf. Is there any harm in that?
Answer:
Yes, this has no basis. Rather, Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Muzzammil 73:20] He should recite whatever he can from memory. This does not require the mushaf. The short surahs, the surahs of al-Mufassal, one recites what he has memorized and does not need the mushaf. Yes.

فَاقْرَءُوا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ
