Knowledge and its importance
Say: ‘Can those who have knowledge and those who do not be alike?’ So only the wise do receive the admonition. 39/9
…Allah will raise those in ranks who believe from amongst you and who are given knowledge…58/11
.. So only those of His servants who have knowledge (of these realities with a vision and outlook) fear Him(allah). ..35/28
And always submit (before the holy presence of your Lord): ‘O my Lord, increase me further in knowledge.’20/114
“When Allah wishes good for someone, He
bestows upon him the understanding of Deen.” (Bukhari)
“By Allah, if a single person is guided by Allah through you, it will be better for you than a whole lot of red camels.” [Bukhari]
“Convey from me even an
Ayah of the Qur’an; relate traditions from Banu Israel, and there is no
restriction on that; but he who deliberately forges a lie against me let him
have his abode in the Hell.”
[Bukhari]
“Allah makes the way to Jannah easy for
him who treads the path in search of knowledge.” [Muslim]
“He who calls others to follow the Right
Guidance will have a reward equal to the reward of those who follow him,
without their reward being diminished in any respect on that account.”
[Muslim]
“When a man dies, his deeds come to an end
except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which
is beneficial, or a virtuous decendant who prays for him (for the deceased).”
[Muslim]
“He who goes forth in search of knowledge
is considered as struggling in the Cause of Allah until he returns.”
[At-Tirmidhi]
“The
guidance and knowledge with which Allah has sent me are like abundant rain
which fell on a land. A fertile part of it absorbed the water and brought forth
profuse herbage and pasture; and solid ground patches which retained the water
by which Allah has benefited people, who drank from it, irrigated their crops
and sowed their seeds; and another sandy plane which could neither retain the
water nor produce herbage. Such is the similitude of the person who becomes
well-versed in the religion of Allah and receives benefit from the Message
entrusted to me by Allah, so he himself has learned and taught it to others;
such is also the similitude of the person who has stubbornly and ignorantly
rejected Allah’s Guidance with which I have been sent.” [Bukhari]
Abud-Darda (radiallahu anh)
reported: The Messenger of Allah (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “He who follows a path in quest of
knowledge, Allah will make the path of Jannah easy to him. The angels lower
their wings over the seeker of knowledge, being pleased with what he does. The
inhabitants of the heavens and the earth and even the fish in the depth of the
oceans seek forgiveness for him. The superiority of the learned man over the
devout worshipper is like that of the full moon to the rest of the stars (i.e.,
in brightness). The learned are the heirs of the Prophets who bequeath neither
dinar nor dirham but only that of knowledge; and he who acquires it, has in
fact acquired an abundant portion.” [Abu Dawud and
At-Tirmidhi]
“May Allah freshen the affairs of a person
who hears something from us and communicates it to others exactly as he has
heard it (i.e., both the meaning and the words). Many a recepient of knowledge
understands it better than the one who has heard it.”
[At-Tirmidhi]
“He who is asked about knowledge (of
religion) and conceals it, will be bridled with a bridle of fire on the Day of
Resurrection.” [Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi]
“He who does not acquire knowledge with
the sole intention of seeking the Pleasure of Allah but for worldly gain, will
not smell the fragrance of Jannah on the Day of Resurrection.”
[Abu Dawud]
Character/ahklaq is from soul and action is a
movement.
Wisdom +restrain(spiritual struggle against nafs by following sunnah) =character.
Wisdom +restrain(spiritual struggle against nafs by following sunnah) +intellect =justice.
