Riyad as-Saliheen, Book of Knowledge

Mu'awiyah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah said, "When Allah wishes good for someone, He bestows upon him the understanding of Deen."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

وعن معاوية رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ :
"من يرد الله به خيرًا يفقه في الدين" ((متفق عليه))

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Envy is permitted only in two cases: A man whom Allah gives wealth, and he disposes of it rightfully, and a man to whom Allah gives knowledge which he applies and teaches it."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

وعن ابن مسعود رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ:
"لا حسد إلا في اثنتين: رجل آتاه الله مالا فسلطه على هلكته في الحق، ورجل آتاه الله الحكمة فهو يقضي بها ويعلمها" ((متفق عليه))

Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The guidance and knowledge with which Allah has sent me are like abundant rain which fell on a land. A fertile part of it absorbed the water and brought forth profuse herbage and pasture; and solid ground patches which retained the water by which Allah has benefited people, who drank from it, irrigated their crops and sowed their seeds; and another sandy plane which could neither retain the water nor produce herbage. Such is the similitude of the person who becomes well-versed in the religion of Allah and receives benefit from the Message entrusted to me by Allah, so he himself has learned and taught it to others; such is also the similitude of the person who has stubbornly and ignorantly rejected Allah's Guidance with which I have been sent."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

وعن أبي موسى رضي الله عنه قال: قال النبي ﷺ :
"مثل ما بعثني الله به من الهدى والعلم كمثل غيث أصاب أرضًا، فكانت منها طائفة طيبة قبلت الماء فأنبتت الكلأ، والعشب الكثير وكان منها أجادب أمسكت الماء، فنفع الله بها الناس، فشربوا منها وسقوا وزرعوا، وأصاب طائفة منها أخرى إنما هي قيعان لا تمسك ماء ولا تنبت كلأ فذلك مثل من فقه في دين الله ونفعه ما بعثني الله به وعلم، ومثل من لم يرفع بذلك رأسًا ولم يقبل هدى الله الذي أرسلت به" ((متفق عليه))

Sahl bin Sa'd (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet ﷺ said to 'Ali (May Allah be pleased with him), "By Allah, if a single person is guided by Allah through you, it will be better for you than a whole lot of red camels."

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

وعن سهل بن سعد رضي الله عنه أن النبي ﷺ قال علي رضي الله عنه :
"فوالله لأن يهدي الله بك رجلا واحدا خير من حمر النعم" ((متفق عليه))

'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'As (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Convey from me even an Ayah of the Qur'an; relate traditions from Banu Israel, and there is no restriction on that; but he who deliberately forges a lie against me let him have his abode in the Hell."

[Al-Bukhari].

وعن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص رضي الله عنهما أن النبي ﷺ قال:

[At- Tirmidhi].

وعنه قال: سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: "الدنيا ملعونة ملعون ما فيها إلا ذكر الله تعالى، وما والاه، وعالمًا أو متعلمًا" ((رواه الترمذي وقال: حديث حسن. )). (2)
