Here is a collection of carefully selected articles and books. We find that a lot of importance has been given to seeking knowledge in Islam. The prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) elevated the one who has knowledge over the worshiper. He (S.A.W.) said in a good hadith, "An ‘Aalim (learned person in the deen) is as much superior to an ‘Aabid (Worshiper) as I am superior to the lowest among you or as the full moon is superior to all stars." Therefore, use these resources wisely because knowledge is the key to closeness to Allah. In the Holy Qur'an, Surah Fatir, Verse 28, Allah says "It is only those who have knowledge among his slaves that dear Allah."
