The more you repeatedly study something, the more your understanding grows and expands. This is the tried and tested study technique of scholars over the past centuries.
What’s interesting is that it doesn’t just apply to the Qurʾān and aḥādīth, but also to books written by scholars. For that reason, scholars from early on would emphasis on memorising scholarly texts just as they would emphasise on the Qurʾān and aḥādīth of Rasūl Allāh ﷺ.
