The Entry of Worldly Sciences into Sacred Knowledge

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: If sacred knowledge is mentioned in a general sense, do other worldly sciences enter into it if they are sought for the sake of Allah?

The Shaykh:
Whatever aids in the obedience of Allah and aids in the pursuit of knowledge is included in sacred knowledge, yes.

The presenter:
They mean medical and engineering sciences in the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
Whatever the Muslims need and that aids in the obedience of Allah is part of sacred knowledge, yes.
