Guidance for the one whose memory is weak in seeking knowledge

Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, what should the one whose memory is poor do in seeking knowledge, and what do you advise him at the beginning of his pursuit? May Allah reward you with good?

Answer:
He has to be patient. If his memory is weak, he has to be patient and repeat what he has memorized until it becomes fixed and established in his mind, bit by bit. He should not memorize the entire world in a month or in a day. As we hear, there are groups that memorize the Qur'an in two months or in a month; this is not sound. Knowledge is taken bit by bit, the Qur'an is memorized bit by bit, and the Sunnah, the hadiths, and the texts are memorized bit by bit, gradually. They are not taken all at once, for then the person gets bored and tired, and then he abandons the pursuit of knowledge. As the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So if you take knowledge bit by bit and in stages, it will be easy for you, and you will reach the goal with patience and endurance. Yes.
