Question:

We are a group of brothers who establish the Sunnah of offering night prayers (in congregation). We have memorised the Qur’ān, but our memorisation is weak and we make a lot of mistakes. What do you advise us with?

Answer:

By Allaah! This lockdown has exposed for Muslims their weakness in terms of the Qur’an.

It has exposed their weakness in terms of the Qur’ān.

A man comes seeking to pray Tarawīh with his family, but the man hasn’t memorised (the Qur’ān), the son hasn’t memorised (the Qur’ān) and the brother hasn’t memorised (the Qur’ān).

Now they have realised their weakness. They have come to realise their weakness in terms of the Qur’ān. And this is a manifest shortcoming on the part of the Muslims.

And although some of them hold doctorates, professorships, or bachelor’s degree, when it comes to the Qur’ān, their level is below kindergarten.

In terms of the Qur’ān, they don’t even have a kindergarten diploma. This, by Allāh! Is a (clear) shortcoming.

And with these lockdown measures in place in many countries, and with the prevention of Tarawīh prayers in the masjid and people praying at home, they have come to realise their weakness in terms of the Qur’ān; and that they cannot even recite the Qur’ān in order to lead others in prayer.

For this reason, we encourage with memorising the Qur’ān and being concerned with the Qur’ān.
