In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:03
Say: Are those who know equal to those who do not know?
0:10
The elegance of knowledge with wisdom
0:16
By Dr. Hamza Ibn Faye Al Fathi
0:21
May God protect him
0:27
One of the scourges of science
0:32
Imam Al-Zuhri, may God Almighty have mercy on him, said
0:36
He died in the year one hundred and twenty-four AH
0:40
But knowledge goes
0:42
Forgetting and quitting studying
0:45
Knowledge lives and is established by studying
0:49
It is proven by teaching and review
0:52
Leaving or abandoning him leads to forgetfulness
0:56
Therefore, he benefited from the words of the wise
0:59
Knowledge disappears only through forgetfulness and abandonment of revision
1:03
Therefore, it is necessary to review science, teach it, and write about it
1:08
This is what is called zakat on knowledge and fulfilling its rights
1:14
Rather, forgetfulness occurs as a result of negligence
1:18
And indulging in desires
1:20
He abandoned reading and scientific renewal
1:23
And being preoccupied with it
1:25
And not teaching it and calling for it
1:28
The worst of its evils is forgetfulness, and it is the most dangerous
1:32
Because of its decline and loss of interest
1:36
And forgetting goodness and staying with the common people
1:40
Because people are ignorant, not knowledgeable people
1:44
He is destined for failure, not success
1:47
Its end is misery, not happiness
1:51
It has been narrated that anyone who memorized a surah from the Qur’an was censured
1:55
Then he neglected to forget it
1:57
It is weak according to scholars
2:00
But that does not exempt him from accountability and blame
2:04
Therefore, how ugly it is for a seeker of knowledge to forget the Qur’an
2:08
If it is not great, it is a disaster to be taken for granted
2:13
Especially the busy neglected one
2:16
The scholar Ibn Uthaymeen, may God have mercy on him, was asked about this issue
2:21
He replied
2:23
Forgetting the Qur’an has two reasons
2:25
The first
2:26
What nature requires
2:28
And the second
2:30
Turning away from the Qur’an and not being indifferent to it
2:34
The first
2:35
A person does not sin by it
2:37
It is not punishable
2:39
It occurred from the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
2:42
When he prayed with the people
2:44
And he forgot a verse
2:46
When he left
2:47
Ubayy ibn Ka'b, may God be pleased with him, reminded him of it
2:51
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said to him
2:54
Didn't you remind me of her?
2:57
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, heard
3:00
Read to read
3:02
And he said
3:03
May God have mercy on so-and-so
3:05
He reminded me of a verse
3:07
I had forgotten about her
3:09
This indicates that forgetfulness occurs by nature
3:14
There is no blame on man
3:17
As for what is caused by symptoms and indifference
3:21
This may be a sin
3:23
Some people are plotted by Satan
3:26
He whispers to him not to memorize the Qur’an
3:29
Because he does not forget it and fall into sin
3:32
And God Almighty says
3:35
So they fought the friends of Satan
3:38
Satan's plot was weak
3:42
Let man memorize the Qur’an
3:45
Because it is good
3:47
Hopefully it will not be forgotten
3:50
And God Almighty
3:52
When his servant thought of him
3:54
God Almighty knows best
