Abu Ad Darda lalu berkata, "Aku mendengar Rasulullah SAW bersabda: "Barangsiapa melalui jalan untuk menuntut ilmu, maka Allah akan mempermudahnya jalan ke syurga. Sungguh, para Malaikat merendahkan sayapnya sebagai keredhaan kepada penuntut ilmu. Penduduk langit dan bumi hingga ikan yang ada di dasar laut akan mendoakan keampunan kepada orang yang menuntut ilmu. Kelebihan serang alim dibanding ahli ibadah seperti keutamaan rembulan pada malam purnama atas seluruh bintang. Para ulama adalah pewaris para nabi, dan para nabi tidak mewariskan dinar dan dirham, mereka hanyalah mewariskan ilmu. Barangsiapa mengambilnya maka ia telah mengambil bahagian yang banyak." (HR Abu Daud No: 3157) Status: Sahih
