What is the ruling on saying "I'm fed up with the Qur'an" after feeling exhausted from excessive memorization?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
"Zahaq" in common usage means boredom or weariness, and it is permissible to use this word. Allah does not tire until you tire, and boredom necessitates stopping work and forsaking reward. A servant may become weary of worship, but proper etiquette requires avoiding phrases like "I am tired or weary of the Quran," out of reverence for it.
