The answer

Scholars have differed regarding the ruling on forgetting the Qur'an: some say it is a major sin, others say it is a disobedience that does not reach the level of major sins, and still others say it is a calamity or a punishment. As for forgetting the recitations (Qira'at), it is not like forgetting the Qur'an, and its perpetrator is not sinful, but he misses out on a virtue. It is incumbent upon the student of recitations to preserve them and review them.
