Anyone who leaves his home or country in search of Shariah knowledge is in the same category of the one who goes out to fight in the cause of Allah, the Almighty, until he returns to his family. Indeed, the knowledge seeker is like a fighter in the cause of Allah in reviving religion, putting the devil to disgrace, and tiring his own soul out in a good cause.Benefits
Seeking knowledge is a form of jihad in the cause of Allah.
A seeker of knowledge receives the same reward as a fighter in the battlefield, for both of them do something that strengthens the Shariah of Allah and protects it against anything contrary to it.
If a person goes out to seek knowledge, he will be rewarded for his walk as he goes and comes back.
