Can I hold the Quran and read from it while performing Tarawih/Witir prayer?

Holding and reading from the Quran during prayer does not invalidate your prayer as long as you do not make three major and continuous movements while doing so. Also, according to the view of Imam An-Nawawi, it is compulsory for an individual to read the Quran if they had not memorised Surah Al-Fatihah.
