I am a college graduate as are many muslims. I know some in Pakistan right now studying to become doctors. I know others in other parts of the world, middle east included, studying engineering and medicine all with their parents blessings and encouragement. What do you think of this?
"He said: I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) say: If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause that person to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge, the inhabitants of the heavens and the Earth and the fish in the deep waters will ask forgiveness for the learned one. The superiority of the learned one over the devout is like that of the moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The learned are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave neither dinar nor dirham, leaving only knowledge, and one who takes it takes an abundant portion.
