The ruling on one who memorizes the Qur'an and then forgets it out of negligence

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Memorizing the Qur'an and then forgetting it out of negligence: Is it a sin?

Answer:
It is feared, but the correct view is that he does not sin merely by forgetting. Allah says:
Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred.رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا
[al-Baqarah:286] However, he should strive, be diligent, and be consistent in his review so that he does not forget it.
