As the best start for

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

the year of knowledge is why do we

00:00:05 --> 00:00:05

study?

00:00:06 --> 00:00:07

Why knowledge?

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

And I'm gonna share with you some

00:00:10 --> 00:00:13

few things and almost every book of Taskea

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

starts with this Kitabul eimi wafadli

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

the chapter of knowledge and its virtues.

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

And I need you to feel this, I

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

just don't want you just to listen, feel

00:00:24 --> 00:00:26

it, like now you are opening a book,

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

that's knowledge, what is the virtue of

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

it? Why do I want to learn it?

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

I know,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

I can learn later, uh-uh.

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

Number 1, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said in

00:00:37 --> 00:00:38

Surat Zumma,

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

Are they the same?

00:00:43 --> 00:00:46

Those who know and those who don't know,

00:00:46 --> 00:00:46

no answer.

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

Rhetoric question because the answer is 1 no,

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

the answer is no.

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

They are not the same in the sight

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

of Allah,

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

but that should not make you arrogant or

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

make me arrogant. Oh, I am learning, oh,

00:01:00 --> 00:01:03

I am student of knowledge, don't do that.

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

Every time you learn, you will learn one

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

thing for sure,

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

how much you don't know.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

As Imam Shafi'i used to say:

00:01:15 --> 00:01:18

Every time I learn, I learn more about

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

my ignorance,

00:01:19 --> 00:01:20

look at the beauty.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

Every time I learn, I learn more about

00:01:24 --> 00:01:24

my ignorance.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

So every time you learn you know raha'ala

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

alhamdulillah you are teaching me you rabi, but

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

how much I still don't know, they are

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

not the same.
