مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5136 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: How evil it
وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : بِئْسَ مَا لِأَحَدِكُمْ أَنْ يَقُولَ : نَسِيتُ آيَةَ كَذَا وَكَيْتَ ، بَلْ هُوَ نُسِّيَ ، اسْتَذْكِرُوا الْقُرْآنَ فَلَهُوَ أَشَدُّ تَفَصِّيًا مِنْ صُدُورِ الرِّجَالِ مِنَ النَّعَمِ لِعُقُلِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "How evil it is for any of you to say: I have forgotten such-and-such a verse; rather, the truth is that he has been made to forget it (because of negligence). So keep revising and repeating the Noble Qur'an, for it escapes from people's breasts faster than camels tied with their ropes break loose and run away."
