Is there any sin for not memorizing a large portion of the Quran? 

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by TheMufti.com

Q. The person that did not Memorize or did not even study the holy Quraan and knows Surah Fatiha, 3 Quls and recites that in his/her Salaah, is there any punishments for that person on the day of Judgment for not studying the Quraan?


A. A person should recite whatever amount/portion of the Quraan he/she knows in Salaah. At the same time, an effort should be made in learning and memorizing larger amounts/portions of the Quraan.

There is no punishment for not memorizing a large portion or the entire Quraan.
