Question:
He asks whether it is better to focus on memorizing the Qur'an or to focus on frequent recitation without memorization.
Answer:
What I see, and Allah knows best, is that frequent recitation is better. As for memorization, there is another time for it other than Ramadan. Memorization is possible outside of Ramadan, but frequent recitation in Ramadan will be missed if you do not do it. So, recite the Qur'an frequently from the mushaf, and you can memorize it in months other than Ramadan.
