Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, I am a beginner student, and I find memorizing the Qur'an difficult. I am quicker at memorizing scientific texts and the Prophetic hadiths because of the apparent benefits I find in them, some of which I may act upon. What do you advise me to do if I am unable to combine memorizing the Qur'an with memorizing other things?
Answer:
There is no blame on you except regarding the remembrance. You must memorize the Qur'an. But you can read the Qur'an and write it by reciting it from the mushaf. You need a component that you cannot do. You cannot do it. You must read it to someone or have it explained to you. You may understand it. So it is necessary for you to read it to one of the scholars who will clarify it for you. Yes.
