The only book on earth which can be memorise word by word is Quran/Koran, No other book reported like this.
There are particular classes of persons who can memorize this not everyone, and more surprisingly a muslim children of age 4 to 8 memorize all 30 books, word by word.
No other religion has reported this system of memorizing there sacred books.
We oftenly went for the popular figures, there are such personalities (not popular or well known) who has memorized bible too, being Muslim.
Quran is the word of God, and thats why it remains in its original form since its revealation (in Arabic), and God challenges in Quran that those whoever think that it is not from the God, make one sentence like that, and more then 1400 years have passed no one accept this challenge.
Bible & Quran both are sacred books, but the last one is more accurate and in its original form, are we searching for God words or our ego! a question yet to be answered...

Yes Muslims have been commanded to recite, understand and implement it in their daily lives because it is their code of life.
It is true that there are millions of Muslims who have memorized the Quran and I personally know plenty. The Quran claims thrice that it is easy to remember in the 54th Chapter.
The Bible is recited, read, studied my millions of Christians (and others) around the world and its preservation lies in the fact that it is to date the best selling book of all time.
Cheers.

i think you opt to declare in a roundabout way that the Quran is incomplete or commanding undesirable issues?ISnt it? The Quran is totally finished and is Allahs words with out any doubt. the element is that Quran reading everyone can learn, however the tafseer meaning exgesé or interpretation no person can knw it. specifically circumstances there is extra in the back of a verse from the Quran, than only what we examine. If one hasnt have been given know-how of the religion he mite additionally misunderstand some verses that would recommend sth else than they think of. besides the Ahadeeth are considered one of those living occasion from the Prophet Muhammad (observed) for individuals to knw a thank you to stay their lifes, like e.g. the marvelous thank you to desire, a thank you to consume sleep artwork and so on, those issues are additions to the religion of coming up issues extra straightforward to appreciate and persist with.

Reciting the Qur'an and even memorizing it is a highly rewarded form of worship.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “The best amongst you is the one who learns the Qur’an and teaches it to others.”
He (pbuh) also said: "“(On the Day of Judgment,) it will be said to the one who has learned the Qur’an: ‘Read (the Qur’an) and occupy your high degrees. Recite as you used to recite in the world, for your position (in Paradise) will be (determined) by the last verse that you recite.’”
Another Hadith: ""One who tries to read the Qur'an with difficulty will earn a double reward."
It's basically a part of God's wisdom that Bible was distorted or disrupted. It was definitely distorted by people, by adding, editing, deleting, reversing etc. Unlike Bible, Qur'an is perfectly unchanged and saved by God Himself from any editing.

The Bible is not lost. The reason the Bible needn't be memorized is the God before Muhammad and the Qu'ran..You know the real one...he doesn't have a problem keeping his word pure. he created the world and is all powerful he really doesnt have to depend on mortals to keep his word pure.
