Knowledge and Its Value
The Holy Prophet [s] said: "Teachers and students both share in rewards but other people are deprived of them."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 2, p. 25

The Holy Prophet [s] said: "He who propagates religious affairs without having required competency does a disservice to the religion rather than serving it."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 2, p.121

Imam Amir ul Mu'mineen Ali [a] said: "The worth of every man is in his attainments."

Nahjul-Balagha, saying No. 482

Note:

The real value of a person is his knowledge (and the perfection of his attainments). His worth and position would be in accordance with the status of knowledge and attainment he holds. Eyes that are conscious of real values do not look at the face, features, tallness of stature, size or worldly pomp and position but look at the attainments of a person and assess his worth according to these attainments. The conclusion is that a man should strive to acquire distinction and knowledge.

The worth of every person is according to the extent of his knowledge.

Ghurar-ul-Hikam, p. 341

The Holy Prophet [s] said: " Knowledge is Allah's deposit on the earth and scholars are His trustees of it. Therefore, he who acts according to his knowledge, has really delivered His deposit...."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 2, p. 36

Imam Baqir [a] said: "Try to learn knowledge because learning it is a good action and study is itself a worship."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 78, p. 189

Imam Amir ul Mu'mineen Ali [a] said: "The one who seeks for knowledge is like a warrior in the cause of religion for the way of Allah."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 1, p. 179

Imam Sadiq [a] said: " Be careful of your knowledge and see from whom you get it."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol. 2, p. 92

Imam Sadiq [a] said: "Try to obtain knowledge and ornament it with patience and dignity; and be humble for the one who learns knowledge from you."

Al-Kafi, vol.1, p. 36

Imam Sadiq (as.) said: "The one who learns knowledge and acts accordingly, and teaches it for Allah, will be called magnificently in heavens."

Al-Kafi, vol.1, p.35

The Holy Prophet [s] said: "The good of this world and the world to come is with knowledge."

Bihar-ul-Anwar, vol.1, p. 204

Mastrubation is a major sin (Gunah-e-Kabira)

By -
Once, 'Ammar ibn Musa asked Imam Sadiq [a] about commiting sexual intercourse with beasts or masterbation by the hand or other limbs of one's ownself, and he [a] replied: "Any form of these kinds and the like of them by which man pours forth his water, is (considered as) fornication (and it is unlawful)." AI-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 541 Question: What is the situation of Islam towards masturbation? Some youths say that doctors think it has no harm. The answer: Not all that doctors say is true. There are other doctors that say the opposite. What is important to us is what our Wise Creator says. He is more aware of His creatures. Islam, which is the speech of Allah, is clear in its verdicts. The Prophet (S) and his progeny have prohibited it. Masturbation is a filthy doing. Some traditions have called it as “adultery with oneself”. It does not fit the dignity of a respectable man. The clearest evidence on its ugliness is that the doer feels disgust with himself after

Alhamdulliah

Alhamdu means that (all) praise, thanks, gratitude, be to Allah alone, not to any one else, from the beginning of the universe to its end, not under compulsion, but because He alone, and none else, deserves to be praised, not only for the fulfilment of his particular desires but also, mainly, for all the bounties and blessings made available to man in his existence. The love of the merciful for His creation is so deep and fulfilling that no compensation, even in the form of gratitude, can be offered to Him. In fact He needs no return. The divine mercy is independent of gratitude. It reaches and covers all the created beings whether the creatures show gratitude or not for the benefits and bounties they make use of and enjoy. The smallest bounty is an unconditional favour. Man does not deserve it, nor has he any right to claim any favour from the Lord. It is the allembracing mercy of the merciful Lord which reaches one and all, whether any creature asks for it or not, whether the recipie
