Intensive Courses for Memorizing the Qur'an in a Short Time
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: Shaykh, I am a student in the intensive Qur'an memorization association, and I met some of the older students in the course, and they told me that you warn against this course. Is this true?
The Shaykh:
Intensive memorization in a short time has no basis. This is not memorization; this is not memorization at all. Memorization requires time, it requires a period, it requires repetition, it requires reciting it over and over until it becomes fixed. Just one month to memorize the Qur'an? This is not memorization. In reality, this is a burden of what is unbearable, and then it leads to faster forgetting, because what is memorized quickly is lost quickly and forgotten quickly. Yes.
The presenter:
The questions have ended.
The Shaykh:
Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
