Not memorizing the Qur'an

Q 4: Is it permissible for a Muslim not to memorize anything but Surahs Al-Fatihah and Al-Mu`awwidhatayn (Surahs Al-Falaq and Al-Nas) without any attempt to memorize more Surahs?


A: A Muslim should recite the Qur'an frequently with contemplation and act according to its teachings. A Muslim should also memorize as much as he can of the Qur'an and regularly revise the memorized portions in order not to forget them. Indeed, this contains great benefit.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
