Question:
What is the ruling on memorizing the Qur'an from people who have violations of the Shari'ah?
Answer:
Yes. He memorized the Qur'an and it is finished; he has attained good, and it does not harm him that he memorized it from a person who has notes against him. The important thing is that he memorized the Qur'an and mastered it. He should praise Allah for this blessing. But the time has passed; if he had asked before he started, we would have told him to choose a good, upright teacher. But now that it is finished, the question has no benefit.
