Shaikha Umm Abdillah al-Waad’iyyah (may Allah preserve her) said:

“A person from the people complained to my father (may Allah have mercy upon him) that he cannot memorize the Quran because he is busy. So I heard him say: The one with high ambitions, nothing will prevent him. One of our brothers memorized the Quran and he was a cook”
