Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The question is: Which is better, reading the Qur'an or memorizing the Qur'an, for one who has reached the age of thirty or more?
The Shaykh : Can the Qur'an be memorized without recitation?
The questioner : I do not mean recitation, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Or without recitation, is that possible?
The questioner : No, like a person who worships by reading three parts on this day.
The Shaykh : No.
The questioner : Or ... at this time.
The Shaykh : No, he should focus on memorization, because through memorization he achieves both recitation and memorization.
The questioner : Even if he has reached this age, meaning?
The Shaykh : Even if he has reached it, because people differ; some people, even if they reach the age of thirty, have motivation, while others differ.
