Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What are the conditions for a student of knowledge who has embarked on the path of knowledge and seeks success?

Answer:
He is required to choose a scholar from whom he will read books and who will explain them to him. He should choose a teacher or participate in the students' sitting with the teacher in the mosque or elsewhere, meaning in places of knowledge such as schools and universities. Knowledge is sought whether in mosques or in institutions of learning, such as schools and colleges. Knowledge is taken from scholars known for it, scholars known for it, and it is not taken from just anyone, nor from one about whom there is no information, whose belief is unknown, or who is not known for knowledge. Rather, it is taken from one who is trusted in his knowledge, his religion, and his creed. Yes.
