Question:
He says: I work, or I strive to seek knowledge during my travels, but then some things come up and I abandon the schedule when I am busy. Is this considered a lack of seriousness?
Answer:
If you have an excuse for not attending, you are excused. But if you do not attend out of laziness, that is a deficiency. There is no doubt that it is a deficiency and a lack of interest in seeking knowledge. So you must abandon this habit. You will find that seeking knowledge requires effort, requires patience, and requires attendance.
