The reward for going to seek knowledge after the Fajr prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: If I pray Fajr in a mosque, then go to another mosque to attend a lesson, will I be credited with what is in the hadith: He remembers Allah until the sun rises, then he prays two rak'ahs, and Allah will build for him a house in Paradise?
Answer:
He is credited with the reward for going to seek knowledge. If he goes to seek knowledge and attend a lesson, he is striving to seek knowledge, and the angels spread their wings for the student of knowledge in approval of what he does,Sahih Muslim 2699a. This is better than sitting in his place until the sun rises while remembering Allah. Seeking knowledge is better and has a greater reward. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
