Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A group of women are asking about the ruling on some sisters who, when the imam begins to recite, follow the imam as he reads and follow him using the mushaf. Is that permissible?
Answer:
This is not prescribed, and it is not befitting for one to take the mushaf and follow the imam, because this distracts him from the prayer, from the prayer and from reflecting on the Qur'an and following the imam. So he should not take the mushaf while he is praying. However, if the imam needs to take the mushaf because he does not memorize the Qur'an, there is no harm. But the ma'mum should not take the mushaf because it distracts him from the prayer. Yes.
