assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu

Said al*-Khateeb al-Baghdaadee [7] – rahimahullaah, “I advise you - O seeker of knowledge - to make the intention pure and sincere and strive to make the soul act upon what this knowledge demands. Since knowledge is a tree and actions are its fruits and the one who does not act upon his knowledge is not counted as being a Scholar. It has been said, ‘Knowledge is the father and actions are the offspring.’ Indeed, knowledge comes with actions; and riwaayah (narrating) comes with a diraayah (investigating).
