What should I do about the days I stopped memorizing the Quran? Do I have to make them up, or is there an expiation for them, and what is this expiation?

The answer

The Shafi'i madhhab (school of thought) regarding someone who vowed to memorize a specific amount of the Qur'an and then failed to do so, is that they must make up what they missed. This is the correct view. If a duty is missed, it must be made up. Even if they did not have a specific intention for the exact amount they vowed, their obligation is discharged by memorizing anything that can be considered a "portion" (wird), even if it is small.
