{If a contingent from every expedition remained behind, they could devote themselves to studies in religion and admonish the people when they return to them thus they (may learn) to guard themselves (against evil)}

[Sura Al-Tauba: 122].

"If Allah wishes to benefit someone, He will grant him fiqh in religion and inspire him to follow the right course".

Hadith - agreed upon

[Agreed upon by Bukhari and Muslim (famous narrators of the Prophet's (P. B. U. H) hadith)]

"One who learns Quran strengthens his spiritual status,

And one who obtains knowledge in fiqh becomes noble.

And one who writes hadith obtains powerful logic.

And one who obtains knowledge in language becomes well mannered.

And one who learns mathematics obtains unerring judgement.

And one who does not protect himself will not benefit from his knowledge".

Imam Al-Shafi 'i (G. P. H).
