Is the one who seeks religious knowledge in colleges to obtain a degree among those who seek knowledge for other than Allah?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the one who enters the religious colleges with the intention of obtaining a degree included in the warning for the one who seeks knowledge for other than Allah? And is it possible to combine the intention of seeking knowledge with the intention of obtaining a degree?

Answer:
Seek knowledge, and leave off your doubts, or judging the intentions and purposes of people. Seek knowledge, rely upon Allah, and leave off your whispers and doubting the purposes and intentions of people. The one who seeks knowledge is working for it, and this is a matter between him and Allah. He may seek knowledge for the sake of the degree or for the sake of a job, and then Allah guides him through the knowledge and he makes his intention sincere for Allah the Exalted. So seeking knowledge is good, and being close to knowledge is good. Yes.
