http://halocho.blogspot.com/2015/08/halocho-1635-may-one-say-tehillim-by.html
Sister site to my Halocho a Day group. On Facebook - הלכה יומית. [Each entry discusses some aspect of Jewish law.]. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Halocho #1635- May one say Tehillim by heart? The Torah is divided into two parts: The written-law (Tanach) and the oral-law (Mishna and Gemara). Even if one knows parts of the written-law by heart, one should be careful not say them without a text. If possible, one should pray from a Siddur, since Davening includes many verses that not everybody knows by heart.
