Is it obligatory for a student of knowledge to memorize the meanings found in tafsir, or is it sufficient to merely review them?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the correct methodology when studying tafsir? How should one progress through the books of tafsir? Am I required to memorize the meanings of the words found in these tafsirs? Or is it sufficient to merely review them without memorizing?

Answer:
Memorization is good; if memorization is facilitated, it is good. If it is not facilitated, then reviewing and repeating the reading will establish the information in your mind. Choose the correct tafsirs, the tafsirs of the Salaf; the older the tafsir, the better it is. Yes.
