1. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “
One who memorizes a Surah of Quran and then forgets it, this Surah will appear on an elevated place on the Day of Judgment with a beautiful look. When the person will look at it, he will ask: Who are you? You are so beautiful that I would have loved to own you. It will reply: Didn’t you recognize me? I am so and so Surah. If you hadn’t forgotten me, I would have elevated you also to this position.”
أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ أَبِی الْمَعْزَاءِ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ
سَمِعْتُهُ یَقُولُ مَنْ نَسِیَ سُورَهً مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مُثِّلَتْ فِی صُورَهٍ حَسَنَهٍ وَ دَرَجَهٍ رَفِیعَهٍ فَإِذَا رَآهَا قَالَ مَنْ أَنْتِ مَا أَحْسَنَکِ لَیْتَکِ لِی فَتَقُولُ مَا تَعْرِفُنِی أَنَا سُورَهُ کَذَا وَ کَذَا لَوْ لَمْ تَنْسَنِی لَرَفَعْتُکَ إِلَی هَذَا الْمَکَانِ.
