[Machine] "Luqman said to his son: 'O my son, do not seek knowledge to boast to the scholars, argue with the ignorant, show off in gatherings, or abandon knowledge in arrogance and desire for ignorance. And when you see people who do not remember Allah, sit with them, for if you are knowledgeable, your knowledge will benefit you, and if you are ignorant, they will teach you. Perhaps Allah will guide them through His mercy and you will be blessed with it too. And when you see people who do not remember Allah, do not sit with them. If you are knowledgeable, your knowledge will not benefit you, and if you are ignorant, they will increase you in deviation and heedlessness. Perhaps Allah will reveal His displeasure upon them and you will be affected with them.'"
لُقْمَانُ لِابْنِهِ «يَا بُنَيَّ لَا تَعَلَّمِ الْعِلْمَ لِتُبَاهِيَ بِهِ الْعُلَمَاءَ وتُمَارِيَ بِهِ السُّفَهَاءَ وَتُرَائِيَ بِهِ فِي الْمَجَالِسِ وَلَا تَتْرُكِ الْعِلْمَ زَهَادَةً فِيهِ وَرَغْبَةً فِي الْجَهَالَةِ وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ قَوْمًا لا يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ فَاجْلِسْ مَعَهُمْ إِنْ تَكُ عَالِمًا يَنْفَعْكَ عِلْمُكَ وَإِنْ تَكُ جَاهِلًا عَلَّمُوكَ وَلَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَطَّلِعَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِرَحْمَتِهِ فَيُصِيبَكَ بِهَا مَعَهُمْ وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ قَوْمًا لَا يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ فَلَا تَجْلِسْ مَعَهُمْ إِنْ تَكُ عَالِمًا لَمْ يَنْفَعْكَ عِلْمُكَ وَإِنْ تَكُ جَاهِلًا زَادُوكَ غَيًّا أَوْ عِيًّا وَلَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَطَّلِعَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِسَخَطٍ فَيُصِيبَكَ بِهِ مَعَهُمْ»
