Why do most Muslims memorize the whole of the Koran or at least most of it?

boredom

Fanaticism

“!تَبًّـــــا! دَعْنِي وَشَأْنِي يا أيُّهَا الأرعن، إن تَصَرُّفك هذا يَلِيقُ بِبَهْلَوَان“

لا، لا، المهرج الوحيد هنا هو فرانك!

Surely not the only one !

Ok, I admit it..

Our apologies, Mag, to those of the Muslim community who might misunderstand our western tendency for thrusts at humor

Not "our", Dale, your apologies.

I've nothing to apology to religious nuts or people lacking the sense of humor..

Thank you Tim but golly, you sound positively angry

Dale,

Maybe it's the way I phrase my sentences but I can assure you that angriness is a feeling I haven't experienced in the last twenty years..

See, first you wrongly apology on my behalf then you attribute me feelings I don't own.

Having little patience with crap is not anger..

I'M NOT ANGRY!!!!

I've no patience to your crap too, Frank.

You are again pretending to know how I feel.

The only thing I hope is not becoming like you when I'm old..

It is though, Tim, if subconscious (see Frank above)

I was much that way when younger and regret it, attempting in later life to adopt a more humorous approach. But again my apologies if I had riled up what you choose not to label anger

I'm almost certainly younger than you in heart right now, Timur.

I certainly would never pick a grouch like you have for an avatar.

If you get old...I doubt your hope will be realized.

What you wouldn't do is none of my concern.

You can always "guess"..

I, on the other hand, will try my best to avoid the vacuity of your thinking..

Can I offer you a tissue, Timur? You sound as though you are crying again.

Most of my comments and opinions already have more substance than most you make.

But you can keep "trying." That sounds like something you can handle.

Timur is quite correct.

No apology is due to a persistent troll who answers his own questions under a pseudonym, presumably in the infantile belief that he is earning celestial brownie points.

You are welcome to apologize for your own behaviour. Your apology ends there.

We see most Muslims know the Koran by heart or at least most of it because they greatly love and connect to it, in it they also find truthfulness, honesty, orders and legislation which help them to overcome the problems and difficulties of this life. They memorize it so that it can be easier for them to fulfill its orders and follow its guidance and legislation. Whoever can't memorize the whole of the Koran due to his being busy or any other reason he tries to memorize as much as he can. They are aware not to do anything against the orders of the Koran, so they do their best to memorize it to be alive in their minds when doing any work either for this life or for the hereafter or for God's sake.
