Does one who does not memorize the verses of Surat al-Kahf escape the Dajjal if he is a believer with sound creed?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The sender, Nur 'Abdullah from Shaqra, sent a number of questions, saying: I hope that the Honorable Shaykh, Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan (may Allah preserve him), will answer them. In her first question, she asks: Does one who does not read escape the trial of the Dajjal and the punishment of the grave? Knowing that they do not memorize Surat al-Kahf or Surat al-Mulk, and if we make them memorize them, they forget them. Please inform us of how to memorize them?

Answer:
It is hoped that the believer will be protected by Allah from the trial of the Dajjal, even if he does not memorize the entire Qur'an or a large portion of it. By his faith, his sound creed, his good opinion of Allah, and his seeking refuge in Allah from the Dajjal, Allah will protect him from him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to seek refuge from the trial of the Messiah al-Dajjal. If a person frequently seeks refuge from the trial of the Messiah al-Dajjal, then Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) will protect him from him, even if he is not a memorizer of the Qur'an or a memorizer of a large portion of it. Rather, faith, sound creed, good opinion of Allah, and utilizing the protective means—which is seeking refuge in Allah from the trial of the Messiah al-Dajjal—all of these matters are a cause of being protected from him by the permission of Allah. Yes.
