Assalamau alaykum wa rahmatuallahi wa barakatuhu
Ibn Salaah said, “When a student of hadeeth has finished learning the
short-chained narrations and other important knowledge of his town, he should
move to other towns.”
Alee, may Allaah be pleased with him, said, “It is enough an honour for
knowledge that even those who are not proficent in it claim it and are happy
whenever they are addressed as knowledgable. And it is enough a condemnation
for ignorance that even an ignorant person despises being called ignorant.”
Muaath bin Jabal, may Allaah be pleased with him said, “Learn knowledge. For,
learning it for Allaah’s sake brings about God-conciousness, seeking it is an
act of worship, revising it is an act of glorifying Allaah, searching for it is
fighting in the way of Allaah and teaching it to those who do not know it is an
act of charity and disseminating it to those who deserve it is an act of
worship.”
Al-Hasan al-Basree said, “To study a chapter of knowledge and teach it to a
Muslim is dearer to me than to have the whole world in possesion and spend it
in the way of Allaah.”
Ash-Shafiee said, “Seeking knowledge is better than performing voluntary
prayers.”
And he said, “Knowledge confers a sense of honour on him who has none.”

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 2482 Narrated by AbuHurayrah (May Allah be pleased
with him)
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) used to say, " O Allah, grant me benefit
in what Thou hast taught me, teach me what will benefit me, and increase my
knowledge. Praise be to Allah in all circumstances. I seek refuge in Allah from
the state of those who go to Hell."
Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a tradition
whose isnad is gharib.
Transliteration:an Abi Hurairah (radiya Allahu anhu) qaal:
qaala Rasul Allah (salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam): "Allahumma infa'ni bima
'allamtani, wa allimni maa yanfa'oni wa zidni 'ilman, alhamdulillahi alaa kolli
haal, wa a'odtho billahi min haali ahlil naar."
