Mission And Philosophy

There are a large number of Prophetic Traditions (Sayings) that encourage Muslims to acquire all types of knowledge from any corner of the world. The Hadith literature (Sayings of the Prophet) is also full of references to the value of knowledge. Some such sayings of the Prophet are as follows:

“Seeking knowledge is obligatory for every Muslim (men or women)”

‘Knowledgeable man is more formidable against the Satan'”

“The ink of the Scholar (Knowledgeable person)is more holy than the blood of the martyr.”

“If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge”

“Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him.
