You cannot recover it if you cannot remember it. For obvious reasons, it is never stored anywhere on Apple’s systems in any human readable format.


You can reset it (If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support) or if that fails use account recovery (How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support).
