"عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيةَ بنِ أَبِى سُفْيَان أَنَّهُ قَالَ وهُوَ يخْطبُ عَلَى الْمِنبر: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ يَقُولُ: يَأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنما العلْمُ بِالتَّعَلُّمِ، وَالفِقْهُ بالتَّفَقُهِ وَمَنْ يُرِدِ الله بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقَّهْهُ فِى الدِّينِ وَإنَّمَا يَخشَى الله من عِبَادِه العُلَمَاءُ، وَلنْ تَزَالَ أُمَّةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتى عَلى الحقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ عَلَى النَّاسِ لَا يُبَالُون مَنْ خَالَفَهُم، وَلَا مَنَ نَاوَأَهُمْ حَتَّى يَأتِى أَمر الله وَهُم ظَاهِرُونَ".

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "O people! Indeed, knowledge is only acquired through learning, and understanding is gained through studying. Whoever Allah wishes good for, He grants them understanding in religion. The truly fearful of Allah among His servants are the scholars."  

الطبراني:١٧٠٤٠حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْمُعَلَّى الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ثنا عُتْبَةُ بْنُ أَبِي حَكِيمٍ عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ بِالتَّعَلُّمِ وَالْفِقْهُ بِالتَّفَقُّهِ وَمَنْ يُرِدِ اللهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ وَإِنَّمَا يَخْشَى اللهَ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الْعُلَمَاءُ»
