The ruling on one who forgets something of the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. What is the ruling on one who forgets something of the Qur'an due to things like striving to earn a livelihood?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with him. If he forgets the Qur'an because he is preoccupied, he does not commit a sin for that, but he has lost a great reward. It would have been better for him to preserve the Qur'an and recite it, so he has missed out on much good. He can make up for it, and perhaps this forgetting is due to neglecting the recitation. In any case, he does not commit a sin, but much good has been lost to him, so he should make up for it.
