قال مالك بن دينار رحمه الله:
كُلُّ جَلِيسٍ لَا تَسْتَفِيدُ مِنْهُ خَيْرًا فَاجْتَنِبْهُ
📚« ابن أبي عاصم في الزهد (٨٦)
Mālik bin Dīnār rahimahullāh said:
“Stay away from every companion who you do not benefit any good from”.
(Az-Zuhd {asceticism} by Ibn Abī ‘Āsim, 86).

O student of knowledge, busy yourself with that which benefits you.
Shaykh Sālih Sindī (may Allāh preserve him) said:
“A piece of advice to you O student of knowledge, & indeed those before you have tried & tested it.
Your life is short & time is even shorter for you to try & comprehend everything from knowledge, therefore strive in reaching that which benefits you. Take this brief path that connects you to Knowledge:
⏺️ A matter that doesn’t benefit you in knowledge & action - you don’t have anything to do with it. Leave it off, stay away from it & busy yourself with that which benefits you.
⏺️ Don’t be occupied by that which doesn’t benefit you.
⏺️ How many (in number) are those who delve into that which doesn’t benefit them, wasting time: hours, days, nights, & perhaps years, and he paints himself as a student of knowledge, then finds after that; he is nothing (in regards to knowledge), he hasn’t attained anything, The reason: he was occupied with that which was of no benefit to him”.

Gardens Of Knowledge
Gardens Of Knowledge – Knowledge mandates action #1
From the benefits mentioned in last night’s lesson:
The objectives of seeking knowledge
1️⃣ Removing oneself from ignorance and misguidance.
2️⃣ Benefiting the people
3️⃣ Reviving knowledge
4️⃣ Acting upon the knowledge acquired.
These four objectives are gathered in lines of poetry:
فلتقصدوا أربعة لدى ابتدآ
تعلـم لكـي تفـوزوا بالهـــدى
Make your aim four things when you start to seek knowledge.
So that you may be successful in being guided.
أولها الخروج من ضــلال
والثاني نفع خلق ذي الجلال.
The first of them is removing yourself from misguidance.
The second is benefiting the creation of the possessor of honour (Allāh)
ثالثهــــا الإحياء للــــعلــوم
والرابع العمل بالمعــــــــلوم.
The third is to revive knowledge.
And the fourth is to act upon the knowledge acquired.
⏺️ The importance of being sincere in the pursuit of knowledge and acting upon it:
The statement of the poet:
فَعـــالِمٌ بِعِلمِــهِ لَـم يَعمَلَن * * * مُعَـــذَّبٌ مِن قَبلِ عُبَّـادِ الوَثَن
So the scholar who does not act upon his knowledge *** will be punished before the polytheists.
وكُلُّ مَن بِغَيرِ عِلمٍ يَعمَلُ *** أعمالُهُ مَردُودةٌ لا تُقبَلُ
And whosoever does not act upon knowledge *** his actions are rejected and not accepted
