The intended meaning of the knowledge for which one is rewarded
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His saying (peace and blessings be upon him): (When the son of Adam dies, his deeds are cut off except for three: ongoing charity, or knowledge from which benefit is derived) Does this refer to religious knowledge or worldly knowledge?
The apparent meaning is that the hadith is general; any knowledge from which benefit is derived brings him reward. However, the head and peak of this is religious knowledge. So if we suppose that a person dies after having taught some people a permissible craft, and the one who learned it benefits from it, then he attains reward and is rewarded for this.
