Ramadhan Victory -- Seeking Knowlledge

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 

Ramadhan Victory -- Seeking Knowlledge

Allah Most HIgh says,
… وَقُل رَّبِّ زِدْنِى عِلْمًا ‎﴿١١٤﴾
Say, "My Lord, increase me in knowledge." 
[Quran, Ta-Ha 20:114]

Seeking knowledge of the religion is a key to both good in our own lives and good in society. The Prophet (ﷺ) tells us whomever Allah wishes well for He grants deep understanding of the religion. Deep understanding of the religion is not only knowing what you need to do for your own personal life but also being able to be of those who advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience, the framework that Allah gives us in Surah Al-Asr. 

Having knowledge of the religion gives you clarity in your personal life and enables you to fulfill the rights of your parents, spouse, children, neighbors, families, friends and society, how to go about doing the good in society in ways pleasing to Allah guided by Prophetic principles, how do we stand up to the Truth but in ways that are pleasing to Allah, how  do we stand up for justice but in ways that correspond with Prophetic principles of dignity, being honorable and upholding good character. The key to this is to seek knowledge and to spread knowledge. 

How many a person is shaken by the tests and tribulations, by the disasters and devastation. The person of knowledge has light that they can share, by which they can navigate the darkness of the turbulence of this world and they can also give the light of hope, clarity, certitude and conviction. We need to acquire this light of Prophetic knowledge, embody it ourselves and call others to embody it, live it and spread it so that light may spread in the Ummah of the beloved Messenger(ﷺ) and on Allah’s earth.
