082 – Sacrifice in Seeking Knowledge | Scrupulousness of the Student


TheRawha_icon

In this episode, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani completes the section on Seeking Benefit from Imam Zarnuji’s “Instruction of the Student”. In closing the section we learn that attaining knowledge requires sacrifice and burden. He then begins the section on the Importance of Scrupulousness When Seeking Knowledge, where we learn about three things that may befall an unscrupulous student, as well as the relationship between scrupulousness and benefit in knowledge.

In the Daily Rawha, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani will be covering Daily Guidance for Seekers, beginning with two texts:

(1) Imam Zarnuji’s Guidance for Seekers of Knowledge Regarding the Ways of Seeking Knowledge (Ta`lim al-Muta`allim Turuq al-Ta`allum); and

(2) Imam Yusuf al-Nabahani’s beautiful collection of 40 sets of 40 Hadiths of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

The texts will be read in Arabic, translated, and commented upon briefly. This class is of benefit both for committed students of knowledge—particularly given the reading in Arabic—and for those simply seeking daily guidance, reminders, and inspiration in learning to live the light of Prophetic guidance.
