The Noble Prophet (a.s) said: “The most knowledgeable person is one who combines the knowledge of the people with his own knowledge, and the most valuable person is the one with the most knowledge. The least worthy person is the least knowledgeable one. Those who are more knowledgeable about the truth are more deserving of it, and the strongest person is the one who avoids the ignorant people the most.”
قال النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله): أعلم الناس من جمع علم الناس إلى علمه، وأكثر الناس قيمة أكثرهم علما، وأقل الناس قيمة أقلهم علما، وأولى الناس بالحق أعلمهم به، وأحكم الناس من فر من جهال الناس.
