ENCOURAGEMENT towards Seeking KNOWLEDGE AND Acting UPON IT
By Sh Muhammad Al-‘Uthaymeen
------------------------------

Praise be to Allaah, Who has created the heavens and the earth and the types of darkness and light. Praise be to Allaah, Who preferred knowledge to ignorance. He, the Exalted and Almighty, said what means: “Is one who worships devoutly during the hours of the night, prostrating himself or standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord (line one who does not)? Say: "Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know?” It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.” (Az-Zumar: 9).

I testify that there is no god but Allaah, with Whom there are no partners, Who is Well-Aware of what sustains the viability of knowledge and the validity of religion. I testify that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, who said: “When Allaah desires good for someone, He gives him understanding of religion.” (Bukhaari & Muslim) May Allaah bless him, his family, his Companions, and those who will follow their example until the Day of Judgment!

O people! Fear Allaah! Learn the wisdom and rulings of His Laws, through seeking useful knowledge. Knowledge is enlightenment and guidance, while ignorance is darkness and misguidance.

Learn the revelation sent down to your Messenger sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam, since scholars are the heirs of prophets, peace be upon them. Prophets left no heritage in the form of Dinars or Dirhams, but they left behind knowledge as a legacy. Whoever seeks it, will get an abundant share of their legacy. Seek knowledge, since it leads to a supreme status in the worldly life and in the Hereafter. It accrues a continuous reward until the Day of Judgment. Allah says which means: “… Allah will exalt in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge. And Allah is Well-Acquainted with what you do.” (Al-Mujaadalah: 11).

The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam said: “When a servant (of Allaah) dies, his (good) deeds will cease, except for three (kinds of deeds): A charity with continuous effect, a kind of knowledge from which people draw benefit, and a good son who prays to Allaah for him.” (Bukhaari & Muslim)

Look at the heritage of the religious scholars that still exists today. Their endeavors are praised, their methodology is adopted, and their memory is highly esteemed. If their mention is made in a company, the audience of that group of people or gathering always asks Allaah to shower His Mercy on them. Whenever people talk about righteous deeds or esteemed manners, these scholars are mentioned as a good example to be followed.

O people! Acquire knowledge and apply it, since acquiring knowledge is a kind of Jihaad in the cause of Allaah and acting according to it is a cause of guidance and insight granted by Allaah. Allaah says which means: “Is he who was dead and We gave him life whereby he can walk amongst men, like him who is in the darkness from which he can never come out? Thus, it is made fair seeming to the disbelievers that which they used to do.” (Al-An'aam: 122) read more

"Sy Vaderhart breek aan duisend stukkies. Hy staan verslae en staar na waar sy seun nou pas nog gestaan het, voordat die branders hom in die donker dieptes van die watermassa laat verdwyn het. Die ongeloof en smart skeur deur sy longe soos wat hy uitskreeu na sy kind... sou jy nie ook nie? Hoofstuk 11 van die Koran vertel ook hierdie aangrypende verhaal wat jy absoluut net moet lees in: "Die Boodskap van die Koran"

En o ja, kyk ook sommer by: "Vir die Dames?": Sadia het al 'n paar bydraes daar geplaas, onder andere een oor "stilstuipe" en een oor veral mans se vermoë om te kan gedagtes lees... en dan 'glimlag' jy so bietjie oor eie jou belewenis van die dinge... onthou dit is daar vir jou en en vir die Plesier van Allah: www.koraninafrikaans.com"
