I think You cannot decrypt the code to your password. Read How do I store sensitive data securely? you will never allowing people's passwords get stolen.

The link I give will clearly explain about that, if a user forgot his/her password then they has to enter email-id or hint question to get an auto generated password from the system.

Note: You have to read the details in the link properly.
