The Etiquette of Seeking Knowledge
Author: Shaykh Dr Bakr ibn ‘Abdullah Abu Zayd
Seeking Islamic knowledge is a noble pursuit that requires sincerity, patience, humility and good character. In this beneficial work, Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd outlines the manners and principles that should guide every student on the path of learning.
The author discusses the importance of purifying one's intention, respecting teachers and scholars, maintaining humility, practising what one learns, choosing good companions and remaining steadfast in the pursuit of beneficial knowledge. He also warns against attitudes and behaviours that can hinder a student's progress and diminish the benefit of knowledge.
Drawing on the guidance of the Qur’an, Sunnah and the wisdom of earlier scholars, this book offers practical advice for students at every stage of their Islamic studies.
An essential addition to an Islamic library, it serves as a valuable reminder that seeking knowledge is not simply about acquiring information, but also about developing sincerity, discipline and upright character.
