🖋️{Khair Jalees Fi Al-Zaman Kitab}📚
Gul Raza Rahi Arariavi ✍🏻
The importance and benefit of studying is known to everyone who has a special interest in reading and writing.
The famous poet and writer Abul Tayyab Ahmed bin Al-Hussein Al-Mutanabbi said in his poem:
A'azzu makanin fi al-dunya sarju sabih
Wa khairu jaleesin fi al-zamani kitab
Translation
1: The best place in the world for a traveler is the saddle of a horse.
2: And the best companion of the time is a book.
You know that a poet like Mutanabbi has not been seen in history so far, the poets after him are his gleaners,
A person, no matter what field he belongs to, study makes him perfect, in the world, those gentlemen who have knowledge in religious and worldly sciences and expertise in arts are all fond of and interested in studying, because if one is an expert in a field and is not fond of studying, let alone expertise, he will lose even the basic knowledge of it. In the lesson of Gulistan, my respected teacher Hazrat Maulana Naeem Sahib Qasmi said that wealth decreases by spending, but the philosophy of knowledge is that it increases with expenditure and disposal.
In view of this, those who want to rise in their knowledge or those who want to maintain their knowledge consider study as an antidote.
People who are fond of studying are found in every religion, in history there are countless people who are non-Muslims but their daily routine of studying is from five hundred to six hundred, studying becomes food for the soul for such people, studying refines mental abilities, increases the breadth of understanding, removes misunderstanding, eliminates the defect of ignorance, illuminates thoughts, if studying becomes a disease for someone, then he considers it a good thing to be engaged in such a disease, studying makes a person good, elevates intellectual ability, his position is prominent among people of knowledge and art, the speech and writing, conversation of people who are addicted to studying has a different color and approach, literary sentences, meaningful words and attractive expressions, the depth and profundity of the conversation gives peace and joy to the heart, the heart becomes happy.
People who are fond of studying can travel the whole world while sitting in one place, sitting in the present they are so familiar with the events of the past as if they have seen it with their own eyes, there are countless such people among our elders and ancestors whose life is incomplete without studying.
History is full of such people who have made studying their way of life, on the other hand, they are alive and immortal with greatness and respect in the pages of books and in the hearts and minds of people, reading books and making them the decoration of one's house also doubles the beauty of the house, if the shelves and racks of the house are decorated with arranged books, then that house looks like a newlywed bride whose beauty completely removes the condition and state, on the contrary, the house whose shelves and racks are empty of books and countless attractive items of entertainment are decorated, yet it looks deserted and empty, the house in which there is no passion for writing and reading, that house and that family is afflicted with the ugly stain of ignorance.
An ignorant and negligent person comes in the category of foolish and unwise, they have to suffer stumbles from door to door, they are deprived of self-confidence, the best decision for themselves,
After all, there must be some reason why the virtues and merits of the people of knowledge have been mentioned in the Quranic verses and Hadith and their status has been elevated and all the prophets have been blessed with Rasukh fil Ilm, because they are the teachers of humanity and it is necessary for the teacher of humanity to be a teacher of the book.
Therefore, human beings in general and Muslims in particular should develop a passion for reading, writing and studying, remove misunderstandings and awaken their consciousness to protect the country and the nation so that we can defend the world as well as defend the religion which is our purpose of life.
May Allah Almighty grant us this good taste, Amen.
