00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.500
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

00:00:03.500 --> 00:00:10.740
Say: Are those who know equal to those who do not know?

00:00:10.740 --> 00:00:17.359
The splendor of knowledge among the wise

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:22.359
By Dr. Hamzah bin Faye Alif Taihi

00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:26.410
May God protect him

00:00:26.410 --> 00:00:33.909
The trade-off between knowledge and money

00:00:33.909 --> 00:00:37.909
Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, said

00:00:37.909 --> 00:00:40.409
Knowledge is better than money

00:00:40.409 --> 00:00:43.909
Because you guard money and knowledge guards you

00:00:43.909 --> 00:00:46.409
And money is consumed by expenses

00:00:46.409 --> 00:00:48.909
Knowledge is better than spending

00:00:48.909 --> 00:00:50.909
Science is the ruler

00:00:50.909 --> 00:00:53.439
And the money is doomed

00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:56.939
The money tank died and they lived

00:00:56.939 --> 00:01:00.439
And the scholars will remain for the rest of the world

00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:02.939
Their eyes are missing

00:01:02.939 --> 00:01:07.549
Their effects on hearts are present

00:01:07.549 --> 00:01:09.549
Money tempts many people

00:01:09.549 --> 00:01:11.549
And they are fascinated by it

00:01:11.549 --> 00:01:15.049
This is the reason why groups of them turn away from knowledge

00:01:15.049 --> 00:01:19.079
And their immersion in the world, collecting and seeking it

00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:20.579
It is unfortunate

00:01:20.579 --> 00:01:24.579
They believe in money, all glory and glory

00:01:24.579 --> 00:01:27.579
They forgot the glories of science and its excellence

00:01:27.579 --> 00:01:32.120
And his glory exceeds all wealth and adornment

00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.120
Kings and the rich may request it

00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:38.620
They wished they could join his family

00:01:38.620 --> 00:01:41.120
Or they achieved a little of it

00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:45.239
Perhaps, may God be pleased with him, he has good poetry

00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:49.239
Pride is only for people of knowledge

00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.920
On guidance for those who seek guidance

00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:56.420
One of the reasons he prefers it over money

00:01:56.420 --> 00:01:57.920
That you are guarding him

00:01:57.920 --> 00:01:59.920
And knowledge protects you

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:02.420
Money is wasted on expense

00:02:02.420 --> 00:02:05.420
Knowledge is blessed by spending

00:02:05.420 --> 00:02:09.419
Knowledge is ruling and money is ruling

00:02:09.419 --> 00:02:12.509
The people of money died while they were alive

00:02:12.509 --> 00:02:15.009
No mention, no glory

00:02:15.009 --> 00:02:17.009
And the scholars revived

00:02:17.009 --> 00:02:19.509
Even if their eyes were gone

00:02:19.509 --> 00:02:21.509
Science has immortalized them

00:02:21.509 --> 00:02:25.120
And keep them in good memory

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:28.620
And look at the great scholars of Islam

00:02:28.620 --> 00:02:31.120
And what their heritage includes

00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:34.120
He wrote biographies about them and their exploits

00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.120
You find wonder

00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:39.120
Like the four jurists

00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:41.120
Abu Hanifa and Malik

00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:43.120
Al-Shafi’i and Ahmad

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.120
And the six imams

00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.120
Like Al-Bukhari and Muslim

00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:49.120
And a senior scholar

00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:53.120
Such as Al-Nawawi, Ibn Taymiyyah, and Ibn Al-Qayyim

00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:58.120
Those who filled our books and university theses with them

00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:00.620
While the merchants of their times

00:03:00.620 --> 00:03:05.409
Only a few of them are mentioned

00:03:05.409 --> 00:03:07.909
The purpose of these differences

00:03:07.909 --> 00:03:10.409
Force oneself to strive in it

00:03:10.409 --> 00:03:12.909
And struggle in his request

00:03:12.909 --> 00:03:16.409
Strive for it relentlessly and without procrastination

00:03:16.409 --> 00:03:20.409
It has been demonstrated by sense, reality, and outcomes

00:03:20.409 --> 00:03:22.409
Science is a luxury

00:03:22.409 --> 00:03:24.409
And his magic is brilliant

00:03:24.409 --> 00:03:28.409
Transcending all baggage and temptations

00:03:28.409 --> 00:03:31.409
And say, “My Lord, increase me in knowledge.”

00:03:31.409 --> 00:03:33.409
And peace
