Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abdullah al-Utaybi says: Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. How do I memorize scientific texts along with their explanations? Please advise us. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The issue is not memorization; the issue is the presence of scholars who explain these books to you and clarify them to you correctly. If you find a teacher of this caliber, memorize the book by reading it to him from the concise texts prepared for memorization. This is because the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) wrote concise texts for memorization in every discipline: in fiqh, in grammar, in the principles of tafsir, in hadith terminology, and so on.
