Coloring the Quran with Pens to Facilitate Memorization

Question
Is it permissible to use colored pens to highlight verses in the Quran for the purpose of memorization?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The Quran must be glorified and not be tampered with or diminished in its status, and therefore any act of this kind is disliked. It is our duty to honor it, and writing in this manner is not respectful towards it nor in accordance with its sanctity, hence it is disliked. And God knows best.
