Knowledge which is Learnt and Taught for the sake of ALLAH (part 2)




Knowledge which is Learnt and Taught for the sake of ALLAH (part 2)

ALLAH, the Exalted, says:

"ALLAH will exalt in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge.'' (58:11)
"It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear ALLAH.'' (35:28)

Ahadith:
1. Abu Hurairah (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "The world, with all that it contains, is accursed except for the remembrance of ALLAH that which pleases ALLAH; and the religious scholars and seekers of knowledge.'' [At-Tirmidhi].

2. Anas (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "He who goes forth in search of knowledge is considered as struggling in the Cause of ALLAH until he returns.'' [At-Tirmidhi].

3. Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "A believer never satisfies doing good until he reaches Jannah.'' [At-Tirmidhi].

4. Abu Umamah (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "The superiority of the learned over the devout worshipper is like my superiority over the most inferior amongst you (in good deeds).'' He went on to say, "ALLAH, His angels, the dwellers of the heaven and the earth, and even the ant in its hole and the fish (in water) supplicate in favour of those who teach people knowledge.'' [At-Tirmidhi].

5. Abud-Darda (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) 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].

6. Ibn Mas`ud (r.a) reported: I heard the Messenger of ALLA (PBUH) saying, "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]

7. Abu Hurairah (r.a) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH(PBUH) said, "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].
