[25].Surah Al-Furqan [The Criterion]: Ayat 56-57



৫৬. আমি আপনাকে সুসংবাদ ও সতর্ককারীরূপেই প্রেরণ করেছি
৫৭. বলুন, আমি তোমাদের কাছে এর কোন বিনিময় চাই না, কিন্তু যে ইচ্ছা করে, সে তার পালনকর্তার পথ অবলম্বন করুক 
Ayat 56. And Allah sent you (O Muhammad SAWW (PBUH) only as a bearer of glad tidings and a warner.
Ayat 57. Say: "No reward do I ask of you for this (that which I have brought from my Lord and its preaching, etc.), save that whosoever wills, may take a Path to his Lord.
 
[Tafseer] of Ayat 56. But thee We only sent to give glad tidings and admonition. 57. Say: "No reward do I ask of you for it but this: that each one who will may take a (straight) Path to his Lord."

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "He who does not acquire knowledge with the sole intention of seeking the Pleasure of Allah but for worldly gain, will not smell the fragrance of Jannah on the Day of Resurrection.''
[Abu Dawud Hadith # 3664]. 
 
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Furqan Ayat 57.""No reward do I ask of you for this (that which I have brought from my Lord and its preaching" This Hadith has an inducement for acquiring knowledge for the Pleasure of Allah alone. If a religious scholar acquires it to make it a means of worldly gains, then it turns to such a serious crime that such a scholar will not even smell the fragrance of Jannah (i.e., he will not enter it along with the saved). May Allah save us from it. However, if a scholar gains wealth and worldly gains through it without any intention, then it is altogether a different matter. In that case, it is not harmful for him as long as he uses it in a manner pleasing to Allah.
