وعن عمر رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم ما اكتسب مكتسب مثل فضل علم يهدي صاحبه إلى هدى أو يرده عن ردى وما استقام دينه حتى يستقيم عمله رواه الطبراني في الكبير واللفظ له والصغير إلا أنه قال فيه حتى يستقيم عقله وإسنادهما متقارب (الترغيب والترهيب 1/124)
Hazrat Umar (Radhiyallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “A person cannot earn rewards (through any nafl ibaadat) as much as he can earn through acquiring Deeni knowledge, which will be a means of guiding him towards the path of hidaayat (guidance) or prevent him from wrong. And one’s Deen will never be straight (and perfect) until his actions are consistent (i.e. his Deen will never gain perfection until and unless he does not acquire istiqaamat in carrying out righteous actions in accordance to the sunnah in all facets of his life).”
