The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "He
who follows a path in quest of knowledge, Allah will make the path of
Jannah easy to him. The angels lower their wings over the seeker of
knowledge, being pleased with what he does. The inhabitants of the
heavens and the earth and even the fish in the depth of the oceans seek
forgiveness for him. ''
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
