Knowledge and Muhammad (SAW)

The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) once asked him companions a question. He said that I was once given a drink and I drank a lot of it. I drank so much that it started to fill every fibre in me and started flowing out of me. Even after this had happened, I still wanted more. What drink was this? The wisest amongst him replied, this drink was knowledge. There is little doubt that knowledge makes life interesting and pleasurable.

The reason why knowledge is so important is simple.

It is with knowledge that we make decisions, draw conclusions, understand other people, plan ahead and reflect on events past.

Many people see knowledge as a two-dimensional object that only helps them at school or work.

The truth is that it has a synergistic quality that flows into every area of your life.

Take heed of knowledge and play with it. Pledge to learn one thing new each day.

By investing in knowledge, you invest in the seed from which everything in your life will grow.
