<b>Guidance from the Hadith:</b><br> 1) A seeker of knowledge will not find it enough to pursue knowledge or do good until he meets his Lord (i.e. until he dies).<br> 2) The believer has high aspirations. He is only content with entering Paradise.<br> <br> <b>Benefit:</b><br> Imām Ahmad (may Allah have mercy upon him) was asked: “Until when will you continue to seek knowledge?” He replied: “With the inkwell till I go to the grave.” This is reported by Al-Khatib al-Baghdādi in his book Sharaf As'hāb al-Hadith.
