Allah Ta’ala said:
“Say: are they the same, those that know and does that do not know?” (Az-Zumar: 9)
And He -Ta’ala – said: “Allah will raise those among you who believe and those who were given knowledge in degrees” (Al-Mujaadilah: 11)
Ibn Abbaas – radiyallahu anhuma said:
“The Ulamaa are in several degrees and stations above the common believers by 700 degrees. What is between two degrees is the journey of 500 years.”
May Allah make us among the Ulamaa that practice what they know and extend it to others.
