00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.459
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

00:00:03.459 --> 00:00:10.740
Say: Are those who know equal to those who do not know?

00:00:10.740 --> 00:00:16.940
The elegance of knowledge among the wise

00:00:16.940 --> 00:00:21.739
By Dr. Hamza Ibn Faye Al Fathi

00:00:21.739 --> 00:00:27.100
May God protect him

00:00:27.100 --> 00:00:30.100
Correcting scientific intent

00:00:30.100 --> 00:00:35.899
Hisham Al-Dastawi, may God have mercy on him, said

00:00:35.899 --> 00:00:39.899
He died in the year one hundred and fifty-four AH

00:00:39.899 --> 00:00:42.899
I swear I can't say

00:00:42.899 --> 00:00:44.899
I never went one day

00:00:44.899 --> 00:00:46.899
Ask to talk

00:00:46.899 --> 00:00:50.799
I want the face of God Almighty

00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:54.799
What is most tiring for the student and the teacher in the sciences

00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:57.799
His pain and good direction

00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:00.799
So that its path is correct

00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:02.799
And their interactions are good

00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:06.799
It does not spoil its owner’s effort and career

00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:11.799
Here Hisham, may God have mercy on him, is honest with himself and with the people

00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:16.799
And worldly trends crowd out his intention and purpose

00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:23.799
Therefore, Imam Al-Dhahabi, may God have mercy on him, comments on Al-Dastawa’i’s words and says:

00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.799
I swear neither do I

00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:28.799
The predecessors sought knowledge for God

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:31.799
They excelled and became imams to be followed

00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:35.799
Some of them sought it first, not for God

00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:37.799
And they got it

00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:40.799
Then they woke up and held themselves accountable

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:44.799
Knowledge inspired them to sincerity along the way

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:47.799
As Mujahid and others said

00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:49.799
We sought this knowledge

00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:51.799
We have no great intention in it

00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:54.799
Then God gave us the intention after that

00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:57.209
And some of them say

00:01:57.209 --> 00:02:00.209
We sought this knowledge from someone other than God

00:02:00.209 --> 00:02:03.209
He refused to be anyone but God

00:02:03.209 --> 00:02:05.209
This is also good

00:02:05.209 --> 00:02:08.210
Then they published it with good intentions

00:02:08.210 --> 00:02:11.280
Some people asked for it with corrupt intentions

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.280
For the sake of the world

00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:15.280
And praise them

00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.280
They will have what they intended

00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.280
These are people's goals in knowledge

00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:22.280
Golden divides them

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.280
It shows the superiority of those who preceded them over those who succeeded them

00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:28.280
And they are in jihad and treatment

00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.280
Until their affairs are straightened out

00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.280
Their conditions are improved

00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:36.560
The statement of some of them does not mean that there is a weakness of intention

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:38.560
He is satisfied with it

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:41.560
Rather, he works hard and corrects it

00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.560
Until he conquers self-desires

00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.560
Sincerity shines in his heart

00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.560
Otherwise tropical and golden

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:51.560
May God have mercy on them

00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:54.560
One of the great imams of Islam

00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.560
Among those who benefited from their effects

00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:01.560
Perhaps this was a form of struggle

00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.560
Or out of humility

00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:05.560
I swear to God, the success
