 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيم إن الحمد لله نحمده ونستعينه ونستغفره ونعوذ بالله من شرور أنفسنا وسيئات عمالنا من يهده الله فلا مضل له ومن يضلل فلا هادي له وشد الله إلا الله وحده لا الشريك له وشد أن محمد عبده ورسوله يا أي والذين آمنوا اتقوا الله حق تقاته ولا تموتن إلا وأنتم مسلمون يا أي والناس اتقوا ربكوا الذي خلقكم من نفس واحدة وخلق منها زوجها وبث منهما رجالا كثيرا ونساء والتقوا الله الذي تساءلون به والأرحام إن الله كان عليكم رقيبا يا أي والذين آمنوا اتقوا الله وقولوا قولا سديدا يصلح لكم أعمالكم ويغفل لكم ذنوبكم ومن يطع الله ورسوله فقد فاز فوز عظيمة أما بعد فإن أصدق الحديث كتاب الله تعالى وخير الهدي هدي محمد ابن عبد الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وشغل الأمور محدثاتها وكل محدثة بدعة وكل بدعة ظلالة وكل ظلالة في النار أخوة أخوة هذا إن شاء الله تعالى إذا وفاست ست إن شاء الله تعالى إن شاء الله تعالى to our online مدرسة العمرية أخوة أخوة تلاي إن شاء الله تعالى I will be speaking about المنهاجية في طلب العلم the methodology in how to seek knowledge many people they want to learn the sharia and they want to acquire a good portion of the religion and have comprehension and understanding of it but what doesn't allow them to go forward and progress is they don't know where to start from they don't know what to do and they don't also know how to do it إن شاء الله تعالى in this sit I will give you an insight إن شاء الله تعالى in how to seek knowledge where to start from what you should do and what you shouldn't do إن شاء الله تعالى brothers and sisters who are listening the ways to seek knowledge طرق تحسين العلم the way to seek knowledge the means the path to take are it revolves around three main points any student of knowledge who wants to embark on this path of seeking knowledge three things are what he has to come with number one is الحفظ memorization a student of knowledge if he's not memorizing he will be deficient in his learning the second thing إن شاء الله تعالى is القراءة reading a student of knowledge who doesn't take time out to read will also be deficient in learning and acquiring knowledge and the third thing إن شاء الله تعالى is حلق التدريس to come to the circles of knowledge to come to the places where knowledge are being given if a student of knowledge does not go to a scholar and take knowledge from him he will be deficient in his acquiring of knowledge a lot of you may ask yourselves what do I memorize how do I memorize there are very common questions that are asked let's go back to the first one of the three things that a student of knowledge needs to gain knowledge one حفظ memorization there are things that a student of knowledge needs to do in order to be able to memorize in the most efficient way and to make sure that that knowledge that memorization it goes to his long long term memorizing a long term memory that it goes into his long term memory number one إخلاص النية لله تعالى to do this action for Allah سبحانه وتعالى say alone حسن المقصد your intention is purely for the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى once you do that you will gain a great portion of knowledge إن شاء الله تعالى a person gains knowledge in accordance to their intention number two البعض عن المعاصي والآثام stay far away from sins stay far away from falling into the prohibitions stay away and stay far from going against the commands of your Lord any student of knowledge who wants to memorize has to stay away from sins and you're all familiar with the statement of Imam الشافع محمد بن إدرس الشافعي in which he said to his teacher وكي عبن جرح الرؤاسي he said شكوت إلى وكي عبس وحفضي فأرشدني إلى ترك المعاصي وقال إن العلمة نور ونور الله لا يهدى لعاصي he said I can play to my teacher about my memorization weakening and so when he went and he complained to him he said my memorization has started to weaken وكي عبن جرح he said to him that this knowledge you are taking is light and sinning will extinguish this light Allah does not give a person knowledge and then they are able to sin so stay away from sinning تعويد النفسي على الحفض it is to consistently train yourself to memorize a lot of the people don't want to memorize they just want to rely on books number four المدى كرة revision taking a person you know a friend of yours and sitting with him and reading what you've memorized on him and asking him to correct you if you have if you have weakness in your memorization المدى كرة revision number five كثرة التكراري للمحفظ to always go over what you have memorized and not to think since you've memorized this you don't have to go over it again that isn't the case you always go over it and last but not least اختيار الزمان والمكان المناسبيني to choose the best time and to choose the best place many people want to memorize and they want to memorize at times when they are tired at times when their mind is occupied with other things or they want to memorize in a place which is busy other people are speaking they want to memorize in front of the computer they want to memorize in front of a 50-inch plasma television that won't work so to choose the right time and to also choose a place where nothing will take your concentration those are the six things that help a student of knowledge gain knowledge those are the six things that allows a student of knowledge to memorize and that is what we were talking about number two القراءة reading now some of you may ask a question again what do you mean reading how do you read what do you read there are insha'Allah and ta'ala things that a student of knowledge he has to observe and he has to look after when he is reading there is a mana in which he read number one اختيار الكتاب المناسب that the student of knowledge he chooses the right book to read a lot of people don't know what book to read and insha'Allah and ta'ala I will speak about that in our upcoming points when I speak about what we will be learning and that which we will be gaining in our online program مدرسة العمارية إن شاء الله and ta'ala to choose the right book number two is اختيار الوقت الملاسب to choose the right time to read again some people try to read in the presence of other people that isn't correct when you are reading you have to find a silent place where there is no one or there is little movements taking place if you have a local library go to that library and read there number three is تقيد الفوائد على طره الكتاب the student of knowledge should have a pen when he is reading and what he does is on the cover of the book he writes the benefits or he even has a little book a little notebook where he writes the little benefits that he comes across and he writes what volume and what page he finds those benefits in that is one of the ways to read number four is تنويع في القرأة بين الفرون it is that the student of knowledge he doesn't just read one field of the شريعة but he tries to differ between different fields because what happens is if you only read one field sometimes you become bored of reading that field so if you read اصول الفق here and then you read مصطلح الحديث and then you read فق and then you read this and you read that then your mind will feel energized and your mind as well and your heart and you will also look forward to going back to the subject or the field that you were studying days before number five is the book you are going to read to have an overall idea of it and إن شاء الله تعالى when we study the books that we study إن شاء الله تعالى we will do something known as مبادئ العشر in which you are going to learn the ten most basic things that a student of knowledge has to have of every book he is studying or she is studying it is called what it is having an overall understanding of that particular field which you are studying or that book which you are reading the third one إن شاء الله تعالى is حيلة قد تدريس circles of knowledge or in our case right now coming to this online program and participating by making sure that you listen you listen to the recordings what is the benefits that it would have in studying from a person of knowledge or studying from a student of knowledge why can't I just go and read the book myself and understand the knowledge myself why do I have to come to this online program or why do I have to go to circles of knowledge for two reasons first of all is اختصار الطريق لطلب العلم the teacher or the instructor who is teaching you will instruct you to the shortest he will instruct you to the shortest path that you can gain knowledge because he's experienced he knows that route and he will give you the shortest route in which you can take in order to obtain knowledge in the most effective way and in the shortest of time the duration is very short the second one is معرفة المصطلعات عند أهل العلم a student of knowledge if he reads a book himself he may not know the terminologies that are being used here and the teacher would be able to tell you that this term that is used here by this scholar he means this not what other scholars mean by it and who's able to tell you that and instruct a teacher a person who's higher than you in knowledge he will give you what and the terminologies of the scholars and the wordings what they meant by it and the way they authored their books the self they used to say لا تأخذ القرآن من مصحفي don't take your quran from a person who read it from the مصحفي who just studied it by himself don't وعل العلم من صعفي and knowledge don't take it from a person who he only looked and he researched and he saw it himself don't take knowledge from that person take knowledge from its people a person who took it from others who are people of knowledge and into the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم ولي ذلك the self they used to say من كان شيخ كتابه anyone who his teacher is his book he only took knowledge from books he only took knowledge from internet YouTube ها كان خطأه أكثر من صوابي his mistakes his shortcomings are going to be far greater than that which he gets right so it's important that a student sits with a teacher and he takes that knowledge from the knees of a teacher and takes it from him that was the first part of how to gain knowledge the path in obtaining knowledge point number two إن شاء الله و تعالى so I said the path to gain knowledge is three things الحفظ والقراءة وحلقوا التدريس memorization reading and coming to the circles of knowledge now we're going to talk about what are the knowledge in which I have to gain تلقي العلوم الشرقية the knowledge that a person who wants to embark on being a student of knowledge what knowledge does he have to understand or what knowledge does he take number one write this down the knowledge is divided into two the knowledge in the شريعة that you're going to learn are categorized into two headings the first one is called علوم which are الغيات they are the objective knowledges what do I mean by objective it is what all the other fields of the religion work for it is what you are finally aiming to gain so it's called علوم الغيات the objective knowledges and it is what it is a تفسير the commentary of the Quran number two is الحديث the traditions of the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم number three is الفق jurisprudence rulings and four is العقيدة Islamic creed those four that I mentioned are called علوم الغيات are علوم والمقاصد they are both called it is what everyone wants to finally gain but you can't go علوم المقاصد are علوم الغيات are علوم الأصلية whichever you want to call it you will never be able to gain it unless you study the second form of knowledge there is which is called علوم الآله which is the instrumental knowledges it's called an instrumental knowledge it works it's an instrument to allow you to understand التفسير commentary of the Quran الحديث the prophets traditions الفق the jurisprudence rulings and last but not least عقيدة Islamic creeds those four there are instruments that a student of knowledge needs in order to understand these four and they are as follows the Quran the instrument that you have to have or the knowledge which you need to have in order to study التفسير is called أصول التفسير it's called what أصول التفسير the second one is مصطلح الحريث مصطلح الحريث is an instrumental knowledge that allows the student of knowledge to understand the حديث why is it صحيح how is it صحيح what makes it صحيح and etc. فق it has an instrumental knowledge علوم القالة what is it أصول الفق أصول الفق and عقيدة it requires the understanding of the Quran and the sunnah and the Arabic language it requires the understanding of the Quran and the sunnah and the Arabic language the Arabic language that you need are these three النحو грامة بلاغة الالكوانسي and the third one which is صرف صرف which is مفولوجي so every student of knowledge he has to study this methodology this sciences he has to have understanding of it in order to be able to understand the Quran and the sunnah now insha'Allah I'm going to go into details in the علوم المقاصد the objective knowledges and also the علوم الآالة which is the instrumental knowledge I'm going to go to each one in details insha'Allah in my upcoming sits
