حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ وَحَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ الْمُعْتَمِرِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِئْسَمَا لِأَحَدِهِمْ أَوْ أَحَدِكُمْ أَنْ يَقُولَ نَسِيتُ آيَةَ كَيْتَ وَكَيْتَ بَلْ هُوَ نُسِّيَ وَاسْتَذْكِرُوا الْقُرْآنَ فَإِنَّهُ أَسْرَعُ تَفَصِّيًا مِنْ صُدُورِ الرِّجَالِ مِنْ النَّعَمِ مِنْ عُقُلِهَا قَالَ أَوْ قَالَ مِنْ عُقُلِهِ.

Affan told us: Hammad ibn Zayd told us: Asim ibn Bahdala told us, and Mansur ibn al-Mu'tamir told us, from Abu Wa'il, from Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "How evil it is for one of them, or one of you, to say, 'I have forgotten such-and-such a verse'; rather, he was made to forget. Keep the Qur'an in memory by recitation, for it slips away faster from the hearts of men than livestock slips from its hobbles" — or he said, "than it slips from its hobble."
