Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Sometimes in 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 this. If a verse is difficult for you, read the one that follows it, except for al-Fatihah; nothing from al-Fatihah is to be left out. As for other than al-Fatihah, it is permissible that if a verse is unclear to you, you read the one that follows it and continue the recitation. There is no need to take the mushaf. Yes.
