About this app

To learn about Islam and its teachings and code of conduct, and to undertake the tasks of studying and then teaching it, are all noble pursuits that bring a person closer to God. This is only so when coupled with sincerity and the clear aim of following the guidance provided by the Prophet. The Qur’an urges people to learn and it praises the people who attain a good standard of scholarship. Indeed, the first word of divine revelations to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was ‘Read’. God also promises to grant a higher grade in the life to come to scholars, as He says: ‘God will elevate, by many degrees, those of you who believe and those who have been given knowledge’ (58: 11). Indeed, knowledge is the only thing that God has instructed the Prophet to ask for more of, as He says: ‘Be not in haste with the Qur’an before it has been revealed to you in full, but always say: “My Lord, increase my knowledge”’ (20: 114). The Prophet also urged Muslims to seek knowledge and to gain a better understanding of their faith. He says: ‘When God wants a person to have more of goodness, He enables him to have a better understanding of the faith.’ He has ordered his followers to convey to others what they learn from him: ‘Deliver to others what I tell you, even if it be one verse.’ There are many other statements in the Qur’an and the Sunnah in the same vein.
