Leining one's own aliyah

Hi,

In a minyan in which some who ascend to the Torah read their own aliyah and some don't, and sometimes one who knows how to lein (read from the Torah) still doesn't read his own aliyah, it is permissible to lein one's own aliyah.

This will not embarrass someone who needs another baal keriah (reader) to lein his aliyah, since no one will be able to tell.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 4:91:7)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
