Comparing Memorizing the Qur'an and Reciting It in Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is memorizing the Noble Qur'an in Ramadan better, or reviewing it, or merely reciting the Noble Qur'an?
Answer:
Recitation is better, because it is the month of the Qur'an, and every letter is a good deed, and a good deed is rewarded tenfold. If he memorizes, there is no harm, provided he has set aside time for memorization. If the time for memorization is the entire year, then the whole year is for memorization.
