There Is Nothing More Blessed Than When You'Re Leaving The
Home And You'Ve Got That Banner Over Your Head And You'Ve
Got That Angel Behind You And In Front Of You And The Angel
On Top Of Your Head With The Reins And What'S Going To Determine
What Those Angels Do And Say Is The Intention That You Have
As You Go Out Into The World That Intention Is To Seek Knowledge
That Brings You Closer To The Creator Whether That'S In The
Form Of Going To Halaqa,
Going To A Gathering Of Knowledge, Going To A Teacher
Going To A Classroom.
Whatever It Is To Leave Your Home With The Intention Of Seeking
Or Spreading Knowledge Is The Most Noble Pursuits, That We
Find In The Sunnah Of The Prophet
Salallahu Alihi Wasalam. He Said Salallahu Alihi Wasalam
Whoever Seeks Out A Path Of Knowledge, Allah Will Make The
Path To Paradise Easy For Them. Said No One Leaves Their House
Seeking Knowledge Except That The Angels Lower
Their Wings And Approval For That Person.
There Are Many Hadiths, The Most Famous One That Hadith
Ibn Rajab (Rah) Wrote The Entire Book About
This Hadith That As A Person Goes Out Seeking Knowledge The
Inhabitants Of The Heavens And The Earth All Seek Forgiveness
For That Person Whether It Is The Angels In The Heavens Or
The Fish In The Sea, Each One Of Them Seeks Forgiveness For
That Person As They Go Out Seeking And Spreading Knowledge.
The Prophet (Saw) Said, Said The Superiority Of The Scholar
Over The Worshiper Is Like The Superiority Of The Full
Moon Over The Stars And He Said Salallahu Alaihe Wasalam
In Another Narration That The Likeliness Of A Scholar Over
A Worshiper Is Like My Similarity To You Is Like My Rank
Over The Lowest Of You Meaning The Lowest Of The Ummah Of Muhammad (Saw),
Why? Because The Seeker Of Knowledge, The Scholar The One Who
Spreads Knowledge, Spreads Good In The Same Way That The Angel
Spreads Their Wings.
So You Spread Good Throughout The Earth And There Are Many
Different Things That The Prophet (Saw) Mentioned.
Of Course In That Narration Also On I Didn'T Go Through It
In Depth That The Prophets Don'T Leave Behind Their Dirham
Or Dinars, But They Leave Behind Knowledge.
That'S The Inheritance Of The Prophets.
So It'S A Means Of Connecting You To Allah Because You Learn
About Allah A Means Of Connecting You To The Prophet (Saw).
Because You Become An Inheritor Of The Prophet (Saw),
A Means Of Connecting You To The Angels Because They Lower
Their Wings And Approval For You, Spread Their Wings Out
And A Means Of Connecting You To The People Because Your
Relationship With Them Is Benefiting Them And Even The Environments
Because Ibn Rajab (Rah) Commented On That, What Would
Cause The Fish In The Sea To Seek Forgiveness For That Person
Is That A Person Of Knowledge Thinks About The Rights Of
Everything On Them.
And So They Treat Even Their Environment With Care Because
They'Re Acting In Accordance With That Knowledge And That'S
Embedded Within This.
So The Example Of A Person Who Seeks And Spreads Knowledge
To The One Who Worships Allah (Swt)
Is Like Someone Who Earns Halal, Which Is Good
And Someone Who Spends "Fi Sabilillah" Spends In The Cause
Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala, Right?
So Spreads That Good And A Lot Of Time When You'Re Thinking
About Going Out To Seek Knowledge, You'Re Thinking About
Dedicating Years Of Study Which Is Good And We Need People
That Are Able To Go Out And To Spend Years Studying The Sacred
Knowledge And On Teaching It Properly, But Just The Blessing
Of Going Out For One Pursuit Of Knowledge.
Right? Instead Of Watching It Live, Taking The Time Out
To Go And Seek Knowledge.
If You Don'T Feel Like You'Re Going To Gain So Much From
The Way That The Shaykh Is Speaking And And Those Types Of
Things Are Not As Charismatic Or As Exciting As Something
You See Online Then Go For The Blessing Of Having The Angels
Lower Their Wings For You And Having All Of These Creations
Seek Forgiveness For You At The Top Of Them Those Highest
Angels Sending Their Peace And Blessings Upon You Showing
Their Approval And Their Humility
To The Person Who Is Learning Becoming More Humble And Being
Beneficial To Everything Around.
