GOOD DEED: #17 Seek Knowledge
- “And say: My Lord increase me in knowledge.” (Qur’an, Ta-Ha 20:114)
- Ibn ‘Abbas narrated, the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Any person who goes along a course seeking knowledge, Allah will make for him the path to Paradise easy because of it. And he who is slow-paced in doing good deeds, his noble lineage will not give him priority [into Paradise].” (Muslim, Sahih; Ad-Darimi, Sunan; An-Nawawi, Riyad As-Salihin)
- Safwan Ibn ‘Assal said: I came to the Prophet (SAAW) while he was reclining on a red coat [in the mosque] and I said to him:“O’ Messenger of Allah! I came to seek knowledge. He said: Welcome knowledge seeker!
Indeed, the angels surround the knowledge seeker with their wings, then they pile on top of each other until they reach the lower heaven out of their love of what he is seeking.” (Ahmad Ibn Hanbal; At-Tabarani; Ibn Hajar Al-‘Asqalani, Mukhtasar
At-Targhib; Ibn Hajar Al-‘Asqalani, Al-Isabah fi Tamyziz As-Sahabah, article “Safwan Ibn ‘Assal”)
