Parents
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him)
as saying: Let him be humbled into dust; let him be humbled
into dust. It was said: Allah's Messenger, who is he? He said:
He who sees either of his parents during their old age or he
sees both of them, but he does not enter Paradise.

Knowledge
Sufyaan Ath-Thawree, raHimahullaah, said: "The excellence of
knowledge is due only to the fact that it causes a person to fear and
obey Allaah, otherwise it is just like anything else." [Related by ibn
Rajab]
Al-Hasan al-Basree, raHimahullaah, said: "Whoever learns something in
the name of Allaah, seeking that which is with Him, he will win. And
whoever learns something for other than Allaah, he will not reach the
goal, nor will his acquired knowledge bring him closer to Allaah."
[Related by Ibn ul Jawzee]
Ibn Mas`ood, raDiallaahu `anhu, said: "True knowledge is not measured in
relationship to how much you memorize and then narrate, but rather,
true knowledge is an expression of piety [protecting oneself from what
Allaah prohibited and acting upon what He mandated]."Also, "Study and
act upon what you learn." [Related by Abu Na`eem]
