The obligatory amount of learning religious knowledge
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A student is studying in one of the religious institutions, but he has not been able to continue, and I want to move into another field.
Answer:
Yes, seek from knowledge the amount that enables you to know the rulings of your religion: prayer, fasting, zakah, and Hajj. Anything beyond that is voluntary. Turn to another job, but learning the matters of the religion is necessary, because it is an individual obligation (fard 'ayn) for every Muslim. Learn the rulings of 'aqidah, even if briefly, and learn the rulings of prayer.
