Question:
Is delivering the sermon from a paper better, or from memory... following his way, (peace and blessings be upon him)?
Answer:
According to what is easy: the one who can deliver it from memory is better, and the one who cannot should write it down, and there is no harm in that. Delivering it from memory is more preferable, more unifying for the hearts, and better. If it is not easy, he should write it and deliver it from his book.
