  Salaam 'alaykum,

If there is no one in your community who is hafiz of Qur'an, is it permissible for a capable person to recite from the mushaf during Taraweeh in Ramadaan?

Also, what is the ruling on holding something during the salaah, whether it is the mushaf, a child or other than that?

Question: Is it allowed to read from a Qur.aan during the late-night [Tahajjud] prayer since I have memorized very little and I desire to finish the Qur.aan during the late-night prayers?
Response: There is no harm in that. Dhakwan, the freed slave of ?Aa.ishah, used to lead them in prayer during Ramadhaan reading from a copy of the Qur.aan. Al-Bukhaaree recorded that in his Saheeh with a definitively-stated discontinuous chain. This is the opinion of a large number of scholars. Those who don't allow it have no evidence to support them. Not everyone has the Qur.aan memorised and, therefore, there is a need to read it from a copy of the Qur.aan in the prayer and otherwise. This is especially true for the late night prayers and during the night prayers of Ramadhaan for those who have not memorized the Qur.aan in their hearts.

QUESTIONIs it permissible to make rukoo' with only one hand on the knee, while the other hand holds a child?

ANSWER by Shaykh Muhammad 'Umar Baazmool, instructor at Umm Al-Quraa University in MakkahThe Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) prayed holding Umaamah [1], and he would put her down when he made rukoo' and sujood. So based on this, in my view, he should put the child down when making rukoo'.And if there is some reason that makes it necessary for him to hold the child during the rukoo', then it seems that it would be permissible, and Allaah knows best.
