[Machine] Abd Al-A'la At-Taymi said to me, "Indeed, anyone who is given knowledge that does not bring them to tears, it is as if they were not given any knowledge that benefits them."
قَالَ لِيَ عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى التَّيْمِيُّ إِنَّ مَنْ أُوتِيَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ مَا لَا يُبْكِيهِ لَخَلِيقٌ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ أُوتِيَ مِنْهُ عِلْمًا يَنْفَعُهُ

[Machine] I heard Abd al-A'la al-Taymi saying, "Whoever is given knowledge that does not make him cry, it is as if he has not been given knowledge at all, because Allah exalted the status of the scholars." Then he recited the verse from Surah Al-Isra (17:107) until the saying, "They will cry" (17:109).
سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الْأَعْلَى التَّيْمِيَّ يَقُولُ مَنْ أُوتِيَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ مَا لَا يُبْكِيهِ لَخَلِيقٌ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ أُوتِيَ عِلْمًا يَنْفَعُهُ لِأَنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى نَعَتَ الْعُلَمَاءَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ} [الإسراء 107] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {يَبْكُونَ} [الإسراء 109]
