Question:
He says: May Allah protect you. With the exams approaching, students of knowledge are torn between two important matters: striving for high grades and a high average, and struggling to be sincere in seeking knowledge. How can one reconcile sincerity for Allah with the desire for high grades?
Answer:
He is required to do both: he is required to strive for high grades and good success, and he is also required to have a sincere intention and purpose in seeking knowledge. This does not conflict with that. Yes.
