Does reading the surahs, verses and prayers by looking at a paper invalidate the salah?

The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Reading the suras, ayahs and prayers by looking at a paper in the salah or reading the ayahs written on the wall makes the salah invalid. For this reason, we must stay away from such a deed.
Reading a verse wrongly in the salah makes it invalid. However, there is no need to worry about it. You can perform the salah again. You should try to perform the salah by reading the ayahs that you know best.
