And do not be like those who forget God those who neglect obedience to Him so that He makes them forget their own souls to forget to send ahead good deeds for its sake. Those — they are the immoral.

What a wretched person is he amongst them who says: I have forgotten such and such a verse. (He should instead of using this expression say): I have been made to forget it. Try to remember the Qur'an for it is more apt to escape from men's minds than a hobbled camel.

Sahih Muslim #1735Ibn Mas'ud reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:Sahih

Wretched is the man who says: I forgot such and such a sura, or I forget such and such a verse, but he has been made to forget.

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #2481Ibn 'Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:Sahih

"Do not talk too much without remembrance of Allah. Indeed excessive talking without remembrance of Allah hardens the heart. And indeed the furthest of people from Allah is the harsh-hearted."

Sahih Muslim #2617'Abdullah b. 'Amr b. al-'As (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:Sahih

'Abdullah, don't be like so and so who observed prayer during the whole night and then abandoned it (altogether).

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #3025Narrated 'Abdullah:Da'if

that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "How horrible it is for one of them - or - one of you to say: "I have forgotten such and such Ayah,' rather he was made to forget. So be mindful of the Qur'an, for - by the One in Whose Hand is my soul - it escapes from men's hearts faster than a camel from its fetter."
