Carrying a Mus-haf with a Tafseer whilst praying qiyaam al-layl

Question: 9505

Is it permissible for a person to carry a Mus-haf which has footnotes (Tafseer or commentary) whilst praying qiyaam al-layl, and if he comes across a word he does not understand, he looks at what it means whilst he is praying?
