Iqtidaa-ul-'Ilm al-'Amal - Knowledge Mandates Action

I advice you O seeker of knowledge to have a sincere and pure intention in your search for knowledge, and that you exert yourself in acting upon what it mandates (from action). This is since knowledge is a tree and action is its fruit. And one can never be considered knowledgeable so long as he doesn't act upon what he knows. It has also been stated: "Knowledge is a parent and action is its offspring" and 'Knowledge comes with action, while narrating comes with investigating." So do not feel satisfied with actions so long as you are lacking in knowledge, nor feel satisfied with knowledge so long as you fall short in producing actions. Rather, combine between them both, even if your share two is small.
