How Precious The 'Ilm Is

Bismillaahirrahmaanirrahiim

'Ilm, Teacher, and Friend.

-The 'Ilm-


"When Moses (peace be upon him) knew of a man who was more knowledgeable than him and wanted to receive knowledge from him, he said to his servant:
"And (remember) when Mûsâ (Moses) said to his boy-servant:"I will not give up (travelling) until I reach the junction of the two seas or (until) I spend years and years in travelling."" [Surat Al Kahf: 60]." (source: https://en.alukah.net/Shariah/0/515/ )


That's how precious the 'ilm is.


Our ustadz hafizhahullah always says,

'Ilm naafi' (beneficial knowledge) is the key to change ourself.

We need 'ilm naafi' to face the test in every slice of life.

So we can walk on the right path

So we can keep on the track

Even if we fall down,

we will be strong enough to get back up again.


Even if the journey of seeking for knowledge takes years and years,

we will never give up

because we have hope for where we'll be ended up.

"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

'Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge,

Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him.'"
