Question

Is it allowed to hold the Qura'an in my hands and read from it in any nafal prayer?

Answer

According to the Hanafi Madhab, it is Makrooh to hold the Qur?aan in any Salaat including Nafl Salaat and read from the Qur?aan. (Fataawa Hindiyyah, Raddul Muhtaar, Fataawa Rahimiyyah vol.9 pg.288-289, Maraaqiul Falah pg.187)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
