Solution

The statement that does not represent an aspect of the Muslim understanding of the Qur'an is: "Because Muhammad had a problem with his short-term memory the revelations were delivered to him in stone etchings that faded away after a twelve-hour period." This is not a part of the Islamic tradition. According to Islamic belief, the Qur'an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad by the angel Gabriel over a period of 23 years. While Prophet Muhammad himself was illiterate, he memorized the revelations and then recited them to his companions, who either memorized them or wrote them down.
