Forgetfulness can be due to several reasons:
1. Organic disease: This is treated by consulting specialized doctors. 2. Preoccupation of the heart: This is treated by freeing the heart from preoccupations that hinder awareness and perception. 3. Committing sins and transgressions: This is treated with piety towards Allah the Almighty and repentance. 4. From Satan: This is treated by increasing the remembrance of Allah, reciting the Quran, performing lawful incantations (ruqyah), and sending blessings upon the Prophet, peace be upon him.
