The questioner:
The questioner says: We memorize the Qur'an, hadiths, and some texts, but we forget them. What is the solution to this? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
Do not forget them. The solution is that you do not forget them. Repeat them and review them until they become firmly established and fixed. As for if you memorize something and then leave it, you will forget it, without doubt. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
It is not knowledge by mere memorization. Knowledge is jurisprudence and understanding. However, memorization is a means to understanding, a means to understanding. But as for limiting yourself to it, no, that is not knowledge. How many people memorize texts and hadiths but have no jurisprudence and do not know anything? Yes. If you asked them, they would say, "I do not know." Yes.
