Respect for scholars, harmony, different levels of scholars, love of truth, piety etc
In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.
Kathir Ibn Qays, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: I was sitting with Abu Ad-Darda, may Allah be pleased with him, in the mosque of Damascus. A man came to him and said: “O Abu Darda! I have come to you from the city Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, for a hadith that I have heard you relate from the Messenger of Allah. I have come for no other purpose”. He said: “Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessinngs of Allah be upon him, say: “Whoever takes a path in pursuit of knowledge, Allah will make him follow a path to Paradise. The angels lower their wings in their great pleasure for the one who seeks knowledge, the inhabitants of the heavens and the earth and the fish in the deep waters ask forgiveness for the scholar. The superiority of the scholar over the devout worshipper is like that of the moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave neither dinar nor dirham, but they leave behind knowledge, thus, he who acquires it has acquired an abundant portion”. [Sahih Abi Dawud 3641]
Basis of Truth is Not Attached to The Character or Personality We Love, Choose or Prefer!
