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]
When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
