[Machine] "Verily, knowledge and faith are sought at their places. Whoever seeks them, shall find them." He said that three times. Seek knowledge from four men: Uwaymir, the father of Darad, Salman al-Farsi, and Abdullah ibn Mas'ood, and Abdullah ibn Salam. Verily, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Indeed, he is one of the ten in Paradise."

[Machine] It saddens me that I used to ask you every day, but you would stay away from me. Mu'adh said, "Knowledge and faith are like two smiling faces; go and seek them." Yazid asked, "Where can I find them?" Mu'adh said, "With four people; with Uwaimir, father of Dardaa, Abdullah bin Mas'ud, Salman the Persian, and Abdullah bin Salam. It is said that they are the ten companions of Paradise." Yazid said, "I also heard that they could be found with Umar ibn al-Khattab." Mu'adh said, "Do not ask him about anything, for he is busy with other matters." Al-Zuhri narrated part of this hadith from Abu Idris.

[Machine] Indeed, knowledge and faith are to be sought after and found. He said that three times. Seek knowledge from four companions: Uwaimir, Abu Darda, Salman al-Farsi, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, and Abdullah ibn Salam.

[Machine] When Mu'adh was on his deathbed, it was said to him, "O Abu Abdur Rahman, give us advice." He said, "Let me sit up." He then said, "Indeed, knowledge and faith are in their places, whoever seeks them will find them." He repeated this statement three times. So seek knowledge from four companions: from Uwaimir Abu al-Darda, from Salman al-Farsi, from Abdullah bin Mas'ud, and from Abdullah bin Salam who was Jewish and embraced Islam. For I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Indeed, he will be in the company of the ten in Paradise."
