Ahadeeth on Knowledge – Part 3

Abu Hurairah (RA) Narrated: that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him." Jami` at-Tirmidhi - Grade : Sahih Vol. 5, Book 39, Hadith 2646 Narrated Abu Hurairah: that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever is asked about some knowledge that he knows, then he conceals it, he will be bridled with bridle of fire." Jami` at-Tirmidhi - Grade : Hasan Vol. 5, Book 39, Hadith 2649 Narrated Abu Musa: "Never was a Hadith unclear to us - the Companions of the Messenger of Allah - and we asked 'Aishah, except that we found some knowledge concerning it with her." Jami` at-Tirmidhi - Grade : Hasan Vol. 1, Book 46, Hadith 3883 Abud-Darda (RA) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) 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." Riyadh As-Salihin - Reported by : Abu Dawood and Tirmidhi English book reference : Book 13, Hadith 1388 Narrated Ibn Mas`ud: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to take care of us in preaching by selecting a suitable time, so that we might not get bored. (He abstained from pestering us with sermons and knowledge all the time). Sahih al-Bukhari Vol. 1, Book 3, Hadith 68
